Cape May County is the southernmost county in the U.S. state of New Jersey. The county's Census-estimated population was 94,727 in 2015, a 2.6% decrease from the 97,265 enumerated at the 2010 United States Census,[3] in turn decreasing by 5,061 (-4.9%) from the 102,326 counted in the 2000 Census,[4] retaining its position as the state's second-least populous county. Cape May was one of only two counties to lose population in the decade since 2000; the decline was the largest percentage decrease of any county statewide and the second-largest in absolute terms.[5][6] A consistently popular summer destination with 30 miles (48 km) of beaches, Cape May attracts vacationers from New Jersey and surrounding states, with the summer population exceeding 800,000. Tourism generates annual revenues of $5.3 billion, making it the county's single largest industry, with leisure and hospitality being Cape May's largest employment category.

The county is part of the Ocean City, NJ Metropolitan Statistical Area[7] as well as the Philadelphia-Reading-Camden, PA-NJ-DE-MD Combined Statistical Area.[8] Its county seat is the Cape May Court House section of Middle Township.[1][9]

The county was named for Cornelius Jacobsen Mey, a Dutch captain who explored and charted the area from 1611 to 1614, and established a claim for the province of New Netherland.[10][11]

Geography

Most of the county lies on a peninsula that juts into Delaware Bay. It is flat and coastal. Sea level is the lowest point; the highest elevation is found at three areas in Belleplain State Forest in the county's northern corner which are approximately 60 feet (18 m) above sea level.[12]

According to the 2010 Census, the county had a total area of 620.42 square miles (1,606.9 km2), including 251.42 square miles (651.2 km2) of land (40.5%) and 368.99 square miles (955.7 km2) of water (59.5%).[13]

Climate

Given its maritime influence and southernmost location within New Jersey, Cape May County has relatively mild wintertime temperatures. Conversely, the county witnesses lower summertime temperatures than most places in the state, making it a popular place to escape the heat as well. It is in USDA plant hardiness zone 7a/7b, Humid/Temperate. Its climate is suited to growing traditional Northeastern plants, including English Yew, Boxwoods and Sugar Maples. Because of the warmer wintertime temperatures, Hardy Palms, including Trachycarpus fortunei (Chinese Windmill Palm) and Needle Palms, would work quite well in the landscape, these plants having survived for many years also in other parts of coastal New Jersey, from Sandy Hook to Cape May. Wine grapes also do particularly well, given the long growing season. The wine industry is growing – four vineyards and wineries operate in the county now – three more are planted and on the way. The county had a once-vibrant lima bean industry that covered as much as 5,000 acres (2,000 ha) of land and West Cape May still calls itself the "lima bean capital of the world" and hosts an annual lima bean festival, though wine grapes are quickly becoming more common and many wineries dot the landscape.[15]

According to the Köppen climate classification system, Cape May has a humid subtropical climate (Cfa) typical of New Jersey with warm summers and cold winters.

The average temperatures in the county seat of Cape May Court House range from a low of 22 °F (−6 °C) in January to a high of 85 °F (29 °C) in July, although a record low of −22 °F (−30 °C) was recorded in January 1942 and a record high of 103 °F (39 °C) was recorded in July 1993. Average monthly precipitation ranged from 2.91 inches (74 mm) in June to 4.68 inches (119 mm) in August.[16]

Economy

The majority of Cape May County's industry is tourism, due to its beaches and location between the Delaware Bay and the Atlantic Ocean. During the summer season (which traditionally ranges from Memorial Day to Labor Day), tourists often outnumber "locals" 9 to 1. As of 2010, the tourism industry in the county is worth $5 billion. As of that year, the four largest markets for tourism in Cape May County were Greater Philadelphia, North Jersey, New York, and the Canadian province of Quebec.[23]

Canadian tourists typically visit Cape May County over the summer. In 1991 Canadian tourism into Cape May County remained strong despite an economic recession occurring in Canada.[24] As of 1993, most Canadian tourists to the county were Francophones, who typically began their visits during the final two weeks of the month of July, when many Canadians working in the construction and garment sectors received two-week paid time off around that period.[25] Cape May County established a tourism office in Montreal, along St. Catherine's Street.[26] It was the sole international branch of the county tourism authority.[27] Around 1995, it closed due to budget cuts. By 2010 the tourism office of Cape May County established a French language coupon booklet.[28] In 2009, the tourism director of Cape May County, Diane Wieland, said that the Canadian market remained strong despite the Great Recession.[27] In 2010 Wieland said that 13% of visitors to the New Jersey cape originate from Quebec. Mark Di Ionno of The Star-Ledger concluded that out of the $5 billion the county tourism industry is worth, "basic math says French Canadians spend about $650 million."[23]

The commercial fishing industry is also important in Cape May County. In 2005, Cape May County ranked fifth nationally in commercial fishing landings, generating $68.1 million. By 2009, the total value of the catch landed at Cape May was $73.7 million paid to fishermen, with a market value over $440 million, good enough to be the fourth-most-valuable fishing port in the United States. The 2007 harvest was the largest in over 30 years, with more than three quarters of the value coming from scallops, which have increased in value based on federal fishing restrictions intended to allow stocks to recover.[29]

Government

Cape May County is governed by a Board of Chosen Freeholders consisting of five members elected at-large in partisan elections to serve three-year terms of office on a staggered basis, with either one or two seats up for vote as part of the November general election. At an annual reorganization meeting held in January, the board selects a Director and Deputy Director from among its members.[30] As of 2015, Cape May County's freeholders (all Republicans) are:[31]

Cape May County is also served by three Constitutional Officers: County Clerk Rita Marie Fulginiti (R, 2015, Ocean City),[37] Sheriff Gary G. Schafer (R, 2017, Cape May Court House / Middle Township),[38] and Surrogate M. Susan Sheppard (R, 2017, Ocean City).[39]

Cape May County, along with Atlantic County, is part of Vicinage 1 of New Jersey Superior Court.[40] Atlantic County has a civil courthouse in Atlantic City, while criminal cases are heard in May's Landing; the Assignment Judge for Vicinage 1 is the Honorable Julio L. Mendez.[41][42]

The 2nd Congressional District covers all of Cape May County.[43][44] New Jersey's Second Congressional District is represented by Frank LoBiondo (R, Ventnor City).[45]

The county lies entirely within the 1st Legislative District.[46] For the 2016–2017 session (Senate, General Assembly), the 1st Legislative District of the New Jersey Legislature is represented in the State Senate by Jeff Van Drew (D, Dennis Township) and in the General Assembly by Bob Andrzejczak (D, Middle Township) and R. Bruce Land (D, Vineland).[47]

Politics

Though New Jersey is generally a blue state in most elections, Cape May County is a red county.

As of October 31, 2014, there were a total of 67,972 registered voters in Cape May County, of whom 26,525 (39.%) were registered as Republicans, 13,534 (19.9%) were registered as Democrats and 27,850 (41.%) were registered as Unaffiliated. There were 63 voters registered to other parties.[48] Among the county's 2010 Census population, 69.9% were registered to vote, including 81.1% of those ages 18 and over.[48][49]

In the 2008 U.S. Presidential election, John McCain carried the county by an 8.6% margin over Barack Obama, with Obama winning statewide by 15.5% over McCain.[50]
