Deal

Deal is a coastal borough in Monmouth County, New Jersey, situated along the Atlantic Ocean shoreline. The community features residential neighborhoods with a mix of single-family and multi-family homes spread across low-lying terrain near the water.

The borough was officially established on March 7, 1898, during a period when New Jersey coastal communities were expanding rapidly. This founding reflected a broader movement to develop residential seaside communities across the region.

The borough is home to a large Orthodox Jewish community whose traditions shape daily life and local institutions. You'll notice kosher shops, schools, and synagogues throughout the area that serve as the heart of community activities.

The borough provides access to public beaches, parks, and recreational facilities throughout the area. Main roads connect to other parts of Monmouth County, making it easy to navigate and explore the surroundings.

The borough contains historic homes from the late 1800s that reflect the early coastal development of the area. Walking through the neighborhoods today, you can still see the architectural styles and building patterns from that pioneering period.
