The undisputed capital of American Torah Jewry — anchored by Beth Medrash Govoha (BMG), the largest yeshiva outside Israel, with nearly 10,000 students, hundreds of shuls, and the densest kosher infrastructure in the US outside Brooklyn.

Yes — shul is the traditional term for synagogue, and Lakewood, NJ has 216 Orthodox synagogues listed on ShulMap, each mapped with the kosher amenities and housing around it.

Lakewood is one of the fastest-growing Jewish communities in the United States. The township's total population has grown past 150,000 and is overwhelmingly Orthodox; community estimates put the Orthodox Jewish population well above 100,000 and climbing every year as families move in and the community expands into Jackson, Howell, and Toms River. These figures are estimates.

Far more than any other community in this guide — estimates put the number of shuls and minyanim across Lakewood above 700, with a minyan on nearly every block. ShulMap maps a selection of the largest and most central; nearly every neighborhood beis medrash also runs its own minyanim, so the community-wide total dwarfs any single directory.

Beth Medrash Govoha, at 617 Sixth Street, is the largest yeshiva outside Israel — founded in 1943 by Rabbi Aharon Kotler and now enrolling close to 10,000 students. It is the spiritual and geographic anchor of Lakewood and the main engine of the community's explosive growth.

Not in the way that question usually means, and in Lakewood it is a question for your rav rather than for a map. There is no single community-wide eruv. Several neighborhood eruvin cover different sections of town and are maintained separately. More to the point, an eruv here is contested rather than administrative: in December 2017 rabbonim from both the yeshiva and chassidish circles signed a letter opposing an attempt to merge eruvin into a city-wide structure, writing that the matter had been ruled on some twenty years earlier and that there would not be a city-wide eruv, and further letters followed in 2018. Roshei yeshiva including Rav Shneur Kotler and Rav Matisyahu Salomon are reported to have held that the eruv should not be relied on, and a great many Lakewood families do not carry at all. ShulMap maps no eruv boundary in Lakewood and takes no position on the machlokes. Sources: Hefkervelt, December 2017, and The Lakewood Scoop; checked 7 September 2026. Ask your own rav, and ask about your own specific neighborhood.

Not on ShulMap, and that is deliberate. Minyan times change — a zman shifts, a shul moves a Mincha, a seder changes for bein hazmanim — and a stale davening time is worse than no time at all, because someone acts on it. ShulMap maps where the shuls are so you can see what is within walking distance of a house; it does not try to be a luach. For actual times, ask the shul directly or use the community channels Lakewood already runs — the weekly luach and the WhatsApp lists carry schedules, mikva hours and local updates. One distinction worth making, because the two get conflated: zmanim sites such as MyZmanim, the OU or Chabad.org give you the halachic times for Lakewood, which is a different thing from a list of which shul is davening when. If you are choosing a block to live on, the question that actually matters is which shuls are in walking distance, and that is what the map above answers.

The US Census median home value for ZIP 08701, which covers Lakewood, NJ, is $466,100 (American Community Survey, 2020–2024, as valued by owners), and 48% of households there rent. That is a ZIP-wide figure, and asking prices today usually run higher — on ShulMap Lakewood, NJ sits in the $–$$ band relative to nearby communities.
