Medford and Burlington County
Medford is associated with Burlington County in the Census boundary data. Start with the parcel’s tax bill to match the property to that jurisdiction, then confirm which government handles its land use.
Medford by land and water
The Census records 1.01 square miles of water within Medford, or 2.5% of its total area. That share is close to Burlington County’s 2.6%. This is geographic context; waterfront status and usable land must be checked at the parcel.
For scale, Medford township has 34 times the land area of nearby Medford Lakes borough (1.14 square miles). These areas describe boundaries, not comparable property prices.
