Roxbury Township is located in western Morris County and includes six principal communities: Berkshire Valley, Kenvil, Landing, Ledgewood, Port Morris, and Succasunna. The municipality stretches from the Route 10 and Route 46 commercial corridors to the southern shores of Lake Hopatcong and the wooded hills of the Berkshire Valley. Interstate 80 provides regional access toward Parsippany, Newark, and the Delaware Water Gap. Roxbury’s history is closely tied to the Morris Canal, railroads, mining, and manufacturing, and remnants of those industries remain visible in several historic districts. Today, the township combines residential neighborhoods, shopping centers, industrial areas, schools, parks, lakes, and preserved open land. Horseshoe Lake Recreation Complex is a major local gathering place, while other parks and trails serve individual neighborhoods. Roxbury borders Mount Arlington, Mine Hill, Randolph, Jefferson, Mount Olive, Netcong, and several Sussex County communities, giving it an important position between central Morris County and northwestern New Jersey.
