As of the 2020 United States census, the borough's population was 3,174, a decrease of 105 (−3.2%) from the 2010 census count of 3,279, which in turn had reflected a decline of 316 (−8.8%) from the 3,595 counted at the 2000 census.

The area was first settled in 1668 and grew into a community with the arrival of the Long Branch and Sea Shore Railroad. Many early residents were professional fishermen with Norwegian backgrounds.
