Oceanport is a peninsula borough of about 6,150 residents, jutting into the Shrewsbury River between Little Silver, Long Branch, and Eatontown, with a dense suburban feel that's made it a longtime favorite among young professionals and families. The town is home to historic Monmouth Park Racetrack, opened in 1946 and still hosting the prestigious Haskell Invitational each August, one of the biggest events in thoroughbred racing outside the Triple Crown. Oceanport's schools are highly regarded, with a K-8 district feeding into Shore Regional High School, and the borough was even ranked one of New Jersey's best places to live by New Jersey Monthly.
The biggest story shaping Oceanport's future is Netflix Studios Fort Monmouth, a massive production campus under construction on the former Fort Monmouth Army base along the Oceanport and Eatontown border. The project, projected to generate as much as $4.6 billion in revenue over the next 20 years, will bring 12 sound stages and hundreds of thousands of square feet of production and office space, positioning the Two River area as an emerging hub for film and television production. Combined with its parks, restaurants, and easy access to the Garden State Parkway and NJ Transit's North Jersey Coast Line, Oceanport offers a compelling mix of small-town living and major economic momentum, making it one of the more exciting towns to watch in Monmouth County real estate right now.
