About Trenton

Trenton is a larger medium-sized coastal city (ie. on the ocean or tidally-influenced rivers) located in the state of New Jersey. With a population of 85,258 people and 37 constituent neighborhoods, Trenton is the seventh largest community in New Jersey. Much of the housing stock in Trenton was built prior to World War II, making it one of the older and more historic cities in the country.

Unlike some cities, Trenton isn't mainly white- or blue-collar. Instead, the most prevalent occupations for people in Trenton are a mix of both white- and blue-collar jobs. Overall, Trenton is a city of sales and office workers, service providers, and professionals. There are especially a lot of people living in Trenton who work in office and administrative support jobs (20.05%), sales jobs (7.59%), and food service (7.17%).

The city is also nautical, which means that parts of Trenton are somewhat historic and bounded by the ocean or tidal bodies of water, such as inlets and tidal rivers. Such areas are often places that visitors and locals go for waterfront activities or taking in the scenery.

Like elsewhere in America, most people in Trenton use a private automobile to get to work. But notably, a substantial number of Trenton's citizens do make use of public transit in their daily commute, primarily riding the bus. This helps more people get to work with less air pollution, and require fewer highways to get them there.
