Ventnor City is a thriving beach community on New Jersey’s coastline, just a few blocks down the road from Atlantic City. The town is mostly residential, with a mix of swanky beachfront condos and more affordable houses making up much of the rental market. Ventnor Avenue serves as the main commercial corridor across the Absecon Island, and this is where you’ll find most of the shops, restaurants, and even the local grocery stores, banks, and clinics. Of course, the ocean and the beach are the biggest attractions around, easily within walking distance for most residents. Locals love to lounge on the sand, go surfing, and fish from the Ventnor City Pier. Living in Ventnor City puts you close enough to Atlantic City to take advantage of the stellar nightlife and entertainment, but far enough away to enjoy some peace and quiet in your home life.

The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
