Woodbridge Township is a township in northern Middlesex County, in the U.S. state of New Jersey. The township is a regional hub of transportation and commerce for central New Jersey and a major bedroom suburb of New York City, within the New York metropolitan area.[23] Located within the core of the Raritan Valley region, Woodbridge Township hosts the junction of the New Jersey Turnpike and the Garden State Parkway, the two busiest highways in the state, and also serves as the headquarters for the New Jersey Turnpike Authority, which operates both highways.[27]

As of the 2020 United States census, the township was the state's seventh-most-populous municipality,[28] with a population of 103,639,[9][10] its highest decennial count ever and an increase of 4,054 (+4.1%) from the 99,585 recorded at the 2010 census,[29][30] which in turn reflected an increase of 2,382 (+2.5%) from the 97,203 counted in the 2000 census.[31] Woodbridge was the state's sixth-largest by population in 2000 and 2010.[32]
