Cape May County, NJ
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The County population is about 97,000. The populations of all these municipalities increase dramatically in the summertime. It makes for fun monitoring. For example, Cape May City has a population of 5,100 normally. In the summer it can top 100,000 easily. The county seat is Cape May Courthouse in Middle Township. I really need your help for Cape May County. If anyone has any info on fire stations in Cape May County, please EMail me them (ie. names). But here are the frequencies and Info for Cape May County.
