What it’s like
The place. Randolph is a township in Morris County, and most homes here are lived in by their owners. Households earn more than across the county as a whole, and few residents live below the poverty line. Most adults hold a four-year degree, and the population leans somewhat younger than older. Winters are cold, with January the coldest month, summers turn warm by July, and a good deal of rain and melted snow falls over the year.
Work. Many residents work in schools, hospitals and social care, with others in professional and business services, manufacturing, and banks, insurance and property. Among the largest workplaces in Randolph are the Randolph Township School District, County College of Morris and Brightview Randolph. The typical commute is a fairly long one, and a good number of people work from home. Unemployment in Morris County has eased compared with a year earlier, and the county has added a few more jobs than the year before.
Things to do. Morristown National Historical Park, a protected area, is a short drive away, as is Lake Hopatcong, a large reservoir for walks and time on the water. Drew University, also a short drive away, is listed as a botanical garden. For a bigger outing, The Newark Museum of Art and the Statue of Liberty are both a longer drive away.

FEMA’s National Risk Index (December 2025) rates the risk each natural hazard poses to the people, buildings and farms across Morris County, against the rest of the country; all of them together, relatively moderate. It is meant for planning, not a substitute for a local risk assessment or a flood map: FEMA’s index.
From the U.S. Census Bureau’s 2020 census and its American Community Survey (2020–2024 five-year estimates), and the Bureau of Labor Statistics. A survey, so each figure has a margin of error, and figures it is not sure of are left out. More on Morris County and the New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ-PA metro.
