Adams is an unincorporated community located within North Brunswick Township in Middlesex County, in the U.S. state of New Jersey.[2] The community is located along Cozzens Lane (County Route 608) between Route 27 and U.S. Route 1. Except for commercial businesses lining Routes 1 and 27, the community is made up of mostly residential homes and apartment complexes.[3] The community once had a station known as Adams Station, along the Pennsylvania Railroad (currently the Northeast Corridor Line), located on Adams Lane, just east of Route 1.[4][5]
