The 2000 Census population for the county was 510,916, making Ocean County the fastest growing in the state of New Jersey in terms of growth in the number of residents and second-highest in percentage growth. Ocean County was established in 1850 from portions of Monmouth County except for Little Egg Harbor Township which seceded from Burlington County in 1891. Ocean County is located 50 miles east of Philadelphia , 70 miles south of New York City , and 25 miles north of Atlantic City , making it a prime destination for residents of these cities during the summer.
