Choosing the right Shore town is more than picking a zip code, it’s choosing your lifestyle.
Margate and Longport sit side by side—but live very different lives.
Margate
If your ideal summer includes walking to your favorite brunch spot, picking up last-minute groceries on foot, and bumping into neighbors at happy hour—Margate is calling.
With hotspots like Steve & Cookie’s, Tomatoe’s, and the iconic Lucy the Elephant, Margate pulses with a warm, lived-in energy that’s hard to resist. The real estate here reflects the demand—more affordable home prices, but higher property taxes that come with its vibrant infrastructure and popularity.
It’s a fit for those who value lifestyle, convenience, and being at the heart of it all.
Longport
Just a few blocks south, Longport offers a completely different pace. Think: quiet sunrises, no commercial clutter, and a feeling of privacy even in peak season.
This town is a hidden gem—fewer crowds, peaceful beaches, and a more understated elegance. Properties here are often higher in price, but with lower annual taxes, many buyers see Longport as a long-term investment in both peace of mind and property value.
What They Share
Both towns offer easy beach access, family-friendly charm, and a sense of place that only the Jersey Shore can provide. Whether you’re hosting sunset dinners in Margate or spending tranquil mornings in Longport, you're never far from the magic of coastal living.
Your home should reflect your lifestyle and your values. Whether you crave Margate’s lively rhythm or Longport’s secluded luxury, we’ll help you make the right move.
