In July 2009, CNNMoney.com ranked Warren sixth in the nation on its list of "Best Places to Live" in the United States, citing in particular its schools, June carnival (the Lions Club's annual "Expo"), "wide open spaces" (generally per house), 74 "working farms" ("taxed-as-farmland" tracts, but rural, nevertheless), and proximity to New York City.〔Fleisher, Lisa. ("Money magazine names Warren Township, other N.J. towns, top places to live" ), NJ.com, July 13, 2009. Accessed October 30, 2014. "Warren Township scored a top slot on a list of America's best small towns to live in, but Mayor Carolann Garafola says living there feels more like a vacation.Garafola's home in Warren, which Money magazine today crowned the country's sixth best place to live, sits on a cul-de-sac surrounded by a carpet of trees."〕
==History==
Warren was originally inhabited by the Lenape Native Americans and was settled in the 1720s by European farmers. As early as 1900, it became a destination for wealthy residents looking to escape nearby New York City.〔(A Brief History of Warren Township ), Warren Township. Accessed March 19, 2007.〕 Warren was incorporated as a township by an act of the New Jersey Legislature on March 5, 1806, from portions of Bernards Township and Bridgewater Township. The south-eastern half of the original township (which was close to a railroad and contained most of the population) was separated off as North Plainfield Township (since renamed to Green Brook Township) on April 2, 1872.〔Snyder, John P. (''The Story of New Jersey's Civil Boundaries: 1606-1968'' ), Bureau of Geology and Topography; Trenton, New Jersey; 1969. p. 155. Accessed October 25, 2012.〕
Warren was named for Revolutionary War patriot, General Joseph Warren, who was killed at the Battle of Bunker Hill.〔〔Hutchinson, Viola L. (''The Origin of New Jersey Place Names'' ), New Jersey Public Library Commission, May 1945. Accessed August 21, 2015.〕〔Gannett, Henry. (''The Origin of Certain Place Names in the United States'' ), p. 315. United States Government Printing Office, 1905. Accessed August 21, 2015.〕 Warren celebrated its 200th anniversary in 2006.
