Interlaken is a borough situated in the Jersey Shore region, within Monmouth County, in the U.S. state of New Jersey. As of the 2020 United States census, the borough's population was 828,[9] an increase of 8 (+1.0%) from the 2010 census count of 820,[18][19] which in turn had reflected a decline of 80 (−8.9%) from the 900 counted in the 2000 census.[20]
Interlaken was authorized for prospective incorporation as a borough by an act of the New Jersey Legislature on March 11, 1922, from portions of Ocean Township, subject to approval by a majority of voters in the affected area. Voters approved the incorporation of Interlaken in a referendum held on May 3, 1922.[21][22]
Interlaken is a dry town where alcohol is not permitted to be sold by law.[23][24]
History
The area that is now Interlaken was purchased in 1667 by Gavin Drummond from the Lenape Native Americans. It was later part of Ocean Township, which had seceded from Shrewsbury Township in 1849 and included at the time present-day Eatontown, Neptune Township, Neptune City, Avon-by-the-Sea, Bradley Beach, Asbury Park, Allenhurst, Deal, Long Branch, West Long Branch, Loch Arbour, Monmouth Beach, Sea Bright, and Oceanport, along with Interlaken itself.[25]
Dr. Francis Weld, a Boston physician, bought a 364-acre (1.47 km2) tract and named it Interlaken Farm, after Interlaken, a peninsula in Switzerland situated between two lakes, that they had just visited, which was similar to the borough's location between two sections of Deal Lake.[26] Weld established the Interlaken Land Company in 1890 to turn his farm into a residential community with avenues named after English lakes and cross streets named after the islands in the Hebrides in the Irish Sea. While the initial effort did not succeed, the Stormfelz-Lovely-Neville Company was hired in 1905 to continue the building project, and the community began its growth.[25]
Interlaken was formed as a borough on March 11, 1922, based on the results of a referendum held on May 3, 1922.[21] The first mayor and council of Interlaken were seated on June 26, 1922.[25]
Interlaken remains entirely residential, as was originally intended by its developers.[25] The borough had been the only municipality in the state without any businesses, until a day-care center opened in 1992 under the terms of a state law that required approval of child care establishments serving five children or fewer.[27]
Geography
According to the United States Census Bureau, the borough had a total area of 0.39 square miles (1.01 km2), including 0.33 square miles (0.86 km2) of land and 0.06 square miles (0.15 km2) of water (14.62%).[1][2]
The borough borders the Monmouth County community of Allenhurst, Asbury Park, Loch Arbour and Ocean Township.[28][29][30]
Deal Lake covers 158 acres (64 ha) and is overseen by the Deal Lake Commission, which was established in 1974. Seven municipalities border the lake, accounting for 27 miles (43 km) of shoreline, also including Allenhurst, Asbury Park, Deal, Loch Arbour, Neptune Township and Ocean Township.[31]

Government
Local government
Interlaken is governed under the borough form of New Jersey municipal government, which is used in 218 municipalities (of the 564) statewide, making it the most common form of government in New Jersey.[37] The governing body is comprised of the mayor and the borough council, with all positions elected at-large on a partisan basis as part of the November general election. A mayor is elected directly by the voters to a four-year term of office. The borough council is comprised of six members elected to serve three-year terms on a staggered basis, with two seats coming up for election each year in a three-year cycle.[3] The borough form of government used by Interlaken is a "weak mayor / strong council" government in which council members act as the legislative body with the mayor presiding at meetings and voting only in the event of a tie. The mayor can veto ordinances subject to an override by a two-thirds majority vote of the council. The mayor makes committee and liaison assignments for council members, and most appointments are made by the mayor with the advice and consent of the council.[38][39]
As of 2023, the mayor of Interlaken is Republican Michael Nohilly, whose term of office ends on December 31, 2023. Members of the Borough Council are Council President John Rush Butler (R, 2025), Leonard Blasucci Jr. (R, 2025), Michael Delia (R, 2024), Michael DeSarno (R, 2024), Mervin Franks (R, 2023) and Mindy Horowitz (R, 2023).[4][40][41][42][43][44]
In July 2018, the borough council selected Rick Menditto to fill the seat expiring in December 2020 that had been held by Republican John Gunn until he resignedfrom office the previous month.[45] In the November 2018 general election, Democrat Arthur Fama defeated Menditto and was elected to serve the balance of the term of office.[46]
In September 2016, the borough council selected John Rush Butler to fill the vacant seat expiring in December 2016 that had been held by Keith Miller until his resignation earlier that month; Butler will serve on an interim basis until the November 2016 general election, when voters will choose a candidate to serve the balance of the term of office.[47]

At an annual reorganization meeting held in the beginning of January, the board selects one of its members to serve as director and another as deputy director.[58] As of 2024, Monmouth County's Commissioners are:
