The Amboys
The Amboys are a pair of municipalities in Middlesex County, New Jersey, both of which have the word Amboy in their name. The two municipalities are the City of Perth Amboy and the City of South Amboy, located across from each other on the Raritan Bay.
While each community has its own independent government, and the two municipalities have no shared governance, the term is often used to refer to the area, including on highway exit signs. Signage for Exit 11 on the New Jersey Turnpike, exit 129 on the Garden State Parkway southbound, and exit 30 on Route 18 northbound refer to "The Amboys" as a destination.
