Rockaway Borough is a compact municipality in northern Morris County along the Rockaway River and adjacent to Rockaway Township. Its traditional Main Street, older neighborhoods, local businesses, parks, and civic buildings create a distinct center within the larger Rockaway area. Interstate 80, Route 46, and nearby Route 15 provide access to Dover, Parsippany, Morristown, and communities across northern New Jersey. Morris County spans north-central New Jersey, combining historic downtowns and suburban employment centers with wooded hills, lakes, farms, reservoirs, and rural western townships. Interstates 80, 287, and 78, together with regional rail lines and major state routes, connect the county with Newark, New York City, and western New Jersey. The result is a community with a distinct local character and strong ties to the rest of Morris County.
