Netcong is a borough in southwestern Morris County, in the U.S. state of New Jersey.[20] As of the 2020 United States census, the borough's population was 3,375,[11] an increase of 143 (+4.4%) from the 2010 census count of 3,232,[21][22] which in turn reflected an increase of 652 (+25.3%) from the 2,580 counted in the 2000 census.[23] Netcong lies on the shores of Lake Musconetcong.
Established as South Stanhope by workers employed as miners in Stanhope, the name "Netcong" was adopted for the community in 1889 when a post office used the name.[24] Netcong was incorporated as a borough by an act of the New Jersey Legislature on October 23, 1894, from portions of both Mount Olive Township and Roxbury Township, based on the results of a referendum held the previous day.[25][26]
