Deptford Township, New Jersey

“Let’s go to the Mall!” It’s the favorite saying of savvy shoppers heading to Deptford Township, New Jersey to enjoy its plethora of stores, entertainment, and activities. To report that the famous Deptford Mall brings a lot of out-of-town traffic would be a huge understatement. In fact, according to emergency management statistics, Deptford Township’s resident population of 32,000 more than doubles to between 70,000 and 80,000 people on a daily basis. On weekends, that goes even higher. And after Thanksgiving, during the peak of the retail shopping season, that number soars to 200,000 people a day. Long-time Deptford Township Mayor, Paul Medany, explains the influx: “We have six state highways running through town at some point. The Mall is intersected by two major state highways. And the access from Philadelphia on a light traffic day is, literally, 10 minutes. So, shoppers are drawn from that metropolitan area, as well as southern, eastern, and western New Jersey. On a good day, you can make Atlantic City to here in 50 minutes. We’re close to the shore, we’re an hour and a half Deptford Township New Jersey WELCOME TO SHOPPER CENTRAL
