Newton serves as the regional hub in this corner of Sussex County, where the street grid of the county seat transitions into a landscape defined by glacial lakes and limestone valleys. The Paulins Kill and Pequest River drain the terrain, supporting a dense network of water bodies including Swartswood Lake, Lower Crandon Lake, and Lake Kemah. Historically, these waters powered early industry at sites like Bales Mill Pond and provided the foundation for established lakeside communities such as Crandon Lakes and Myrtle Grove.
