We have practiced in this county for forty-six years, and Route 31 — the road that runs past our door — is its spine. From most of Hunterdon we are between eight and twenty-five minutes: Route 31 from the south, I-78 to Exit 17 from the east, County 513 down through Califon from the north.
Hunterdon is a genuine contradiction: one of New Jersey's wealthiest and best-educated counties, and also one of its most rural. Median household income is $136,901, median age is 46.3, 57.7% hold a bachelor's degree or higher — and 58.3% of residents live in areas classified as rural. There are 1,623 farms across 91,588 acres, and 481 of them are permanently preserved, the most of any county in the state.
That combination produces a patient mix you do not find in a suburb. The same week brings a 33-minute-each-way corporate commuter, a farmer who has been lifting since he was fifteen, and a retiree who wants to keep walking the Columbia Trail. Three different bodies, three different plans. We built a practice with seven adjusting tables and three Cox tables to handle that range rather than specialize away from it.
Hunterdon's mean commute is 33 minutes — above the state average — served by a thin, one-directional Raritan Valley Line with stops at High Bridge, Annandale, Lebanon, and White House, most requiring a Newark transfer. Major employers include Merck, Chubb, and Readington Farms. Whether it is I-78 or a train seat, an hour-plus of daily sitting is a load, and it accumulates quietly over years rather than announcing itself.
Hunterdon has 1,623 farms averaging 56 acres, $115M in annual sales, with nursery and greenhouse production the largest segment at $61.7M. Hay is the top crop by acreage. Nursery and hay work means repeated lifting, bending, and carrying in awkward positions, often in weather. Farm bodies come to us later than office bodies do, and usually with more to work with.
Round Valley is New Jersey's deepest lake; Spruce Run's 1,290 acres are directly out our window; the Columbia Trail runs from High Bridge to Long Valley through Ken Lockwood Gorge. Cycling, trout fishing, and reservoir sailing are county institutions. At a median age of 46, most of the people doing these things are past the age where the body forgives a sudden jump in mileage. Staying in it is the goal, and it is usually achievable.
We are at 10 Anderson Rd, off Van Syckle's Road in Union Township — a Clinton mailing address, about two miles north of I-78 Exit 17, alongside Spruce Run Recreation Area. From Flemington and the south, Route 31 north. From Readington, Whitehouse Station, and Lebanon, US 22 to I-78 west and off at Exit 17. From High Bridge, Califon, and Long Valley, County 513 to Cregar Road to Route 31 south. Free parking.
