This dataset contains the boundaries of Cores of the NJ State Development and Redevelopment Plan (NJSDRP). Cores are the downtowns and major neighborhood commercial concentrations of traditional communities. Cores are pedestrian-oriented areas of commercial, civic and other mixed uses serving the surrounding municipality or a Center, generally including housing and access to public transportation. Refer to the NJSDRP for further description of the geographic nature of Cores.

This dataset contains the boundaries of Critical Environmental and Historic Sites (CEHS2) of the NJ State Development and Redevelopment Plan (NJSDRP). CEHS's are areas, generally less than one square mile, which include one, or more, environmentally or historically sensitive features and are recognized by the State Planning Commission. CEHS locations were submitted by county and local entities. All sites submitted were accepted, with minimal requirement for documentation. Refer to the NJSDRP for further description of the geographic nature of CEHS's.

This dataset contains the boundaries of the Urban Complexes of the NJ State Development and Redevelopment Plan (NJSDRP). Adopted March 1, 2001.

The State Plan's Statewide Policies are applied to the natural and built resources of the state through the designation of five Planning Areas. These Planning Areas reflect distinct geographic and economic units within the state and serve as an organizing framework for application of the Statewide Policies of the State Plan. Planning Areas are areas of land, not less than one square mile, that share certain conditions, such as population density, infrastructure systems, level of development, or environmental sensitivity. Planning Areas do not necessarily coincide with municipal or county boundaries, but define geographic areas that are suitable for common application of public policy. The State Plan anticipates continued growth throughout New Jersey in all Planning Areas. The character, location and magnitude of this growth vary among Planning Areas according to the specific character of the area. Each Planning Area has Policy Objectives that guide growth in the context of its unique qualities and conditions. The Policy Objectives also shape and define the application of the Statewide Policies in each Planning Area. Refer to the NJSDRP for further description of the geographic nature of Planning Areas.

The 2023 cartographic boundary KMLs are simplified representations of selected geographic areas from the U.S. Census Bureau's Master Address File / Topologically Integrated Geographic Encoding and Referencing (MAF/TIGER) Database (MTDB). These boundary files are specifically designed for small-scale thematic mapping. When possible, generalization is performed with the intent to maintain the hierarchical relationships among geographies and to maintain the alignment of geographies within a file set for a given year. Geographic areas may not align with the same areas from another year. Some geographies are available as nation-based files while others are available only as state-based files. The cartographic boundary files include both incorporated places (legal entities) and census designated places or CDPs (statistical entities). An incorporated place is established to provide governmental functions for a concentration of people as opposed to a minor civil division (MCD), which generally is created to provide services or administer an area without regard, necessarily, to population. Places always nest within a state, but may extend across county and county subdivision boundaries. An incorporated place usually is a city, town, village, or borough, but can have other legal descriptions. CDPs are delineated for the decennial census as the statistical counterparts of incorporated places. CDPs are delineated to provide data for settled concentrations of population that are identifiable by name, but are not legally incorporated under the laws of the state in which they are located. The boundaries for CDPs often are defined in partnership with state, local, and/or tribal officials and usually coincide with visible features or the boundary of an adjacent incorporated place or another legal entity. CDP boundaries often change from one decennial census to the next with changes in the settlement pattern and development; a CDP with the same name as in an earlier census does not necessarily have the same boundary. The only population/housing size requirement for CDPs is that they must contain some housing and population. The generalized boundaries of most incorporated places in this file are based on those as of January 1, 2023, as reported through the Census Bureau's Boundary and Annexation Survey (BAS). The generalized boundaries of all CDPs are based on those delineated or updated as part of the the 2023 BAS or the Census Bureau's Participant Statistical Areas Program (PSAP) for the 2020 Census.

To better understand the movement of people and goods throughout the Highlands Region, and to support the development of Regional Master Plan policies and long-term planning goals, a Baseline Transportation and Transit Layer was developed. This layer includes all major private bus carriers in the Highlands Region that operate on a daily basis on any of the US, State or County routes used in the analysis. The presence of a routine bus route indicates the potential for transit opportunity. Spatial data were acquired from NJ Transit, Morris County and Somerset County. Bus route data, maps and other information were collected from Sussex, Hunterdon, Bergen and Passaic Counties. Private bus providers were contacted in order to verify the presence of existing routes including Coach Bus, Short Line Bus, Lakeland Bus Lines and Trans-Bridge Lines. There are several private bus carriers including but not limited to Coach Bus, Short Line Bus, Lakeland Bus Lines and Trans-Bridge Lines which predominately run independent routes to Northeast New Jersey and New York City.
