Interlaken, New Jersey

Located just north and west of Asbury Park near the Jersey Shore, the small Borough of Interlaken is home to about 830 people. Bordered on three sides by two sections of Deal Lake, the borough derives its name from Interlaken, Switzerland, which also sits between two lakes. ("Interlaken" means "between lakes" in German.) By design of its developers, Interlaken is an entirely residential community while offering easy access to shops, dining, and services in nearby Neptune and Asbury Park--not to mention being minutes from the beach.
