Point Pleasant is a borough situated on the Jersey Shore, in northern Ocean County, in the U.S. state of New Jersey.[20] As of the 2020 United States census, the borough's population was 18,941,[10][11] an increase of 549 (+3.0%) from the 2010 census count of 18,392,[21][22] which in turn reflected a decline of 914 (−4.7%) from the 19,306 counted at 2000 census.[23]
The borough is a Jersey Shore community situated south of the Manasquan River and north and east of the Beaverdam Creek and its confluence with the Metedeconk River.
Point Pleasant was incorporated as a borough by an act of the New Jersey Legislature on April 21, 1920, from portions of Brick Township, based on the results of a referendum held on May 19, 1920. The borough was reincorporated on March 12, 1928.[24] Point Pleasant is distinct from Point Pleasant Beach, which is a separate community.[25] The borough gets its name from Point Pleasant Beach, which gets its name from its location at the northern end of the Barnegat Peninsula, a long, narrow barrier peninsula that divides the Barnegat Bay from the Atlantic Ocean at the Manasquan Inlet.[26]
