In 1777, George Washington and his troops passed through Hillsborough after the Battle of Princeton on their way to Washington's winter headquarters in Morristown. While the British were encamped in the valley below awaiting an opportunity to attack, it is said that Washington drilled his troops on the Sourland Mountain around a spring near the top using different formations and corn stalks for guns. As the sun caught the stalks, the British thought Washington had received reinforcements and fresh supplies. Believing they were outnumbered, the British troops headed to New Brunswick, allowing Washington's army to continue safely onto Morristown.
The rolling farmland and winding country roads passing through Hillsborough make it difficult to believe that this scenic Somerset County township is located approximately halfway between New York City and Philadelphia, each about 60 miles away. Edged by the Sourland Mountain to the west and Millstone River and Delaware and Raritan Canal to the east, Hillsborough is highly regarded for its diverse housing options, excellent schools, proximity to shops and restaurants, and access to numerous recreational and cultural pursuits. In 2013, Money magazine ranked Hillsborough the 16th Best Place to Live nationwide, making it the third-highest among just three New Jersey towns included in the top 50 list. A 2019 ranking by Niche named Hillsborough as the 8th best place to live and 5th best place to raise a family in the area, as well as the #3 best school district in Somerset County. Measuring 54 square miles, Hillsborough is the largest municipality in the county; it was incorporated in 1798 as one of the state's original group of 104 townships. Completely or partially within its borders are historic hamlets with names like Blackwells Mills, Champlain, Clover Mill, Flagtown, Hamilton, Higgins Mills, Neshanic, Pleasant View, Woods Tavern and Zion. Bordering towns include Branchburg, Bridgewater, Franklin, Manville, Millstone, Montgomery, Raritan and Somerville in Somerset County and East Amwell, Raritan and Readington in Hunterdon County.
An enduring sense of community is apparent in Hillsborough, which is known for its progressive spirit of inclusiveness and diversity. Volunteer-run sports programs, an active branch of the county library, a local brewery called Flounder Brewing Company and local landmarks such as Norz Hill Farm Market all contribute to the fabric of life in Hillsborough. In 2017, there was a ceremonial opening of the 369-acre Mountain View Park that added state-of-the-art ball fields to the township, plus batting cages, a playground, pavilion, a concession/restroom facility and a paved multi-use trail. Big box retailers, restaurants and strip malls line Route 206 as it runs through the middle of the township, providing ample shopping and dining opportunities close to home. About a 15-minute drive south along Route 206 connects to Princeton, home to the Ivy League university, theaters, eclectic shops and fine eateries. For large-scale shopping, Bridgewater Commons is a major regional mall with an incredible variety of stores and restaurants.
Residents are committed to quality education, and the excellence of township schools is often a key factor for those who select Hillsborough as their hometown. This K-12 public school district has six elementary schools (K-4), one intermediate school (5-6), one middle school (7-8), and one high school (9-12). Beginning in grade three, students are provided with their own district-supplied Chromebooks. The high school offers numerous interscholastic sports programs and extra-curricular activities, including marching and concert bands, regionally and nationally competitive debate and robotics teams, and a model peer mentoring program. The Immaculate Conception School is a private parochial school in Somerville for students from pre-kindergarten to grade eight.
