Galloway Township

Quick Facts
What Buyers Should Know
Confirm whether an address is served by public water and sewer or by well and septic, as both are common in the township.
- Ask about the age and service history of septic systems and wells.
- Portions of the township are wooded or near preserved land, so check survey lines, easements and any conservation restrictions.
- Homes in age-restricted or association communities carry rules and dues that should be reviewed before an offer.
- Distance to the Parkway and Route 30 varies significantly across the township.
Property and Housing Considerations
Housing includes 1970s–2000s subdivision homes, newer construction, ranches and colonials on larger wooded lots, townhouses and condominiums, and several planned and age-restricted communities. Rental and student-adjacent housing exists near the university.
