Welcome to Frankford Township
A small-town, rural community with a population of roughly 5,302 residents nestled in New Jersey’s great northwest Skylands region Frankford covers 35.4 square miles of rolling agricultural lands, forests, wetlands, streams, and pristine lakes that provide the ideal retreat for any outdoor enthusiast.
We are home to the Sussex County Fairgrounds, which hosts the NJ State Fair/Sussex County Farm and Horse Show, as well as numerous activities throughout the year, including the renowned German Christmas Market. Our Township is also your stop for family fun at Skylands Stadium, home of the Sussex County Miners and events such as the Jack-O-Lantern Experience and Light Show & Christmas Village!
Frankford’s own permanently preserved open space, Frankford Park (featuring well-maintained athletic fields), and the thousands of acres comprising nearby Stokes State Forest, the Kittatinny Mountains, the Delaware Water Gap National Recreation Area, the Delaware River and the Appalachian Trail, make a visit to Frankford Township like a visit to paradise.
