The area was surveyed in the 1920s by the Miami Beach Builders Corporation of Philadelphia, who established the settlement there.[4]
As with other parts of Lower Township, it is served by Lower Township School District for primary grades and Lower Cape May Regional School District for secondary grades; the latter operates Lower Cape May Regional High School.
