A resort town known for its popularity among visiting presidents, Long Branch was officially incorporated in 1903. Much of the nearby farmland shortly gave way to more and more home development, as the city grew in population through the 1930s.

Monmouth University also makes a great walking tour, with campus located convenient to many Long Branch apartments for rent.
