Location in Mercer County and the state of New Jersey.
Enumeration Bureau map of Trenton, New Jersey Enumeration Bureau map of Trenton, New Jersey State New Jersey Trenton is the capital town/city of the U.S.
State of New Jersey and the governmental center of county of Mercer County.
It was briefly the capital of the United States. The city's urbane region is grouped with the New York urbane region by the United States Enumeration Bureau, but directly borders the Philadelphia urbane region and is part of the Federal Communications Commission's Philadelphia Designated Market Area. As of the 2010 United States Census, Trenton had a populace of 84,913, making it the state's 10th-largest municipality.
Trenton dates back at least to June 3, 1719, when mention was made of a constable being appointed for Trenton, while the region was still part of Hunterdon County.
Boundaries were recorded for Trenton Township as of March 2, 1720, a courthouse and jail were constructed in Trenton around 1720 and the Freeholders of Hunterdon County met annually in Trenton. Trenton became New Jersey's capital as of November 25, 1790, and the City of Trenton was formed inside Trenton Township on November 13, 1792.
Trenton Township was incorporated as one of New Jersey's initial group of 104 townships by an act of the New Jersey Legislature on February 21, 1798.
The remaining portion of Trenton Township was combined by the City of Trenton on April 10, 1837.
A series of annexations took place over a 50-year period, with the town/city absorbing South Trenton borough (April 14, 1851), portions of Nottingham Township (April 14, 1856), both the Borough of Chambersburg Township and Millham Township (both on March 30, 1888), as well as Wilbur Borough (February 28, 1898).
11.2 New Jersey State Prison The Old Barracks in Trenton, New Jersey During the American Revolutionary War, the town/city was the site of the Battle of Trenton, George Washington's first military victory.
On December 26, 1776, Washington and his army, after crossing the icy Delaware River to Trenton, defeated the Hessian troops garrisoned there. After the war, the Confederation Congress briefly met in Trenton in November and December 1784. While the town/city was preferred by New England and other northern states as a permanent capital for the new country, the southern states ultimately prevailed in their choice of a locale south of the Mason Dixon line. Trenton became the state capital in 1790, but before to that year the New Jersey Legislature often met here. The town/city was incorporated in 1792. Several bridges athwart the Delaware River the Trenton Morrisville Toll Bridge, Lower Trenton Bridge and Calhoun Street Bridge connect Trenton to Morrisville, Pennsylvania, all of which are directed by the Delaware River Joint Toll Bridge Commission. Trenton is positioned near the exact geographic center of the state, which is 5 miles (8.0 km) positioned southeast of Trenton. So it is sometimes encompassed as part of North Jersey and as the southernmost town/city of the Tri-State Region, while the rest consider it a part of South Jersey and thus, the northernmost town/city of the Delaware Valley. However, Mercer County constitutes its own urbane statistical area, formally known as the Trenton-Ewing MSA. Locals consider Trenton to be a part of an ambiguous region called Central Jersey, and thus part of neither region.
While it is geographically closer to Philadelphia, many citizens who have recently moved to the region commute to New York City, and have moved there to escape the New York region's high housing costs.
Trenton is one of two state capitals that border another state the other being Carson City, Nevada.It is also one of the seven state capitals positioned inside the Piedmont Plateau.
Trenton borders Ewing Township, Hamilton Township and Lawrence Township in Mercer County; and Falls Township, Lower Makefield Township and Morrisville in Bucks County, Pennsylvania athwart the Delaware River. The town/city of Trenton is home to various neighborhoods and sub-neighborhoods.
Trenton was once home to large Italian, Hungarian, and Jewish communities, but since the 1950s, demographic shifts have changed the town/city into a mostly segregated urban enclave of middle and lower income African Americans.
North Trenton is also home to the historic Shiloh Baptist Church one of the biggest homes of worship in Trenton and the earliest African American church in the city, established in 1888.
Also positioned just at the southern tip of North Trenton is the city's Battle Monument, also known as "Five Points".
It faces downtown Trenton and is a motif of the city's historic past.
East Ward is the smallest neighborhood in Trenton and is home to the Trenton Transit Center and Trenton Central High School, as well as Trenton Central High School West.

Climate data for Trenton, New Jersey (1981 2010 normals) The Lower Trenton Bridge is generally referred to among locals as the "Trenton Makes Bridge" One relic of that era is the slogan "Trenton Makes, The World Takes", which is displayed on the Lower Free Bridge (just north of the Trenton Morrisville Toll Bridge). The town/city adopted the slogan in 1917 to represent Trenton's then-leading part as a primary manufacturing center for rubber, wire rope, ceramics and cigars. Along with many other United States metros/cities in the 1970s, Trenton fell on difficult times when manufacturing and industrialized jobs declined.
Between 1982 and 1992, more than a dozen office buildings were constructed primarily by the state to home state offices. Today, Trenton's biggest employer is still the state of New Jersey.
However, following the 2000 United States Census, Trenton was shifted from the Philadelphia urbane statistical region to the New York urbane statistical area.
With a similar shift by the New Haven, Connecticut, region to the New York area, they were the first two cases where urbane statistical areas differed from their defined Nielsen tv markets.

New Jersey State House was originally constructed by Jonathan Doane in 1792, with primary additions made in 1845, 1865 and 1871.

Trenton Thunder EL, Baseball Arm & Hammer Park New York Yankees 1994 3 The Trenton City Museum positioned at the Ellarslie Mansion in Cadwalader Park Because of Trenton's near-equal distance to both New York City and Philadelphia, and because most homes in Mercer County receive network broadcasts from both cities, locals are sharply divided in fan loyalty between both cities.

The Trenton Thunder, a Double-A minor league team affiliated with the New York Yankees that is owned by Joe Plumeri, plays at 6,341-seat Arm & Hammer Park, the stadium which Plumeri had previously titled after his father in 1999. The Freedom ended operations in 2015, joining the short-lived Trenton Steel (in 2011) and Trenton Lightning (in 2001) as indoor football squads that had brief operating lives at the arena.

Days after the conviction, the office of the New Jersey Attorney General filed motions to have Mack removed from office, as state law requires the removal of propel officials after convictions for corruption.
