Absecon, Pleasantville & Mainland Suburbs

Garden State Pkwy / US-9 / NJ-52

The inner ring of mainland communities just across the bay from Atlantic City, primarily along the US-9 corridor and the Garden State Parkway. Anchored by Absecon (at the mainland end of the AC Expressway causeway), Pleasantville (the mainland's largest community), Northfield, Linwood (home to the Linwood Country Club and the Shore Mall area), and Somers Point (at the base of the NJ-52 Causeway to Ocean City in Cape May County). These communities serve as the primary year-round residential neighborhoods for Atlantic City workers.
