Bargaintown is an unincorporated community and census-designated place (CDP)[3] located within Egg Harbor Township, in Atlantic County, in the U.S. state of New Jersey.[4] [5] The Egg Harbor Township municipal building is located in Bargaintown, about 0.25miles east of the Garden State Parkway.
It was first listed as a CDP in the 2020 census with a population of 5,360.[1]
Bargaintown was laid out by a property developer who hoped the value would increase quickly, but when it did not, he sold the lots cheaply. The community has since been called Bargaintown.[6]
The area is serviced by the Bargaintown Volunteer Fire Company #2 which was established in 1932 and has two stations located in the community. Station 1 is located at 6550 Mill Road and Station 2 is located at 1 Tony "Mink" Pagano Drive.[7]
