NJ Municipalities is published monthly October through June. The circulation consists of New Jersey municipal officials and staff, state-level officials, and professionals interested in local government issues. Please write your articles with this audience in mind.
We are interested in original articles focusing on New Jersey, on programs, or on ideas that would be of interest to New Jersey’s municipal leaders. Commercial firms are also invited to submit feature articles.
