Edison: Invention, Pharmaceuticals, and the Suburban Pulse of Middlesex
Edison Township takes its name from Thomas Edison's Menlo Park laboratory, where the phonograph was invented in 1877 and the first practical incandescent light bulb was developed in 1879. The Thomas Edison Center at Menlo Park preserves the site, and the Edison Memorial Tower rises 131 feet above it, topped by a giant working light bulb. The township covers 30 square miles in Middlesex County and has a population above 103,000.
Oak Tree Road in the Iselin section of Edison functions as one of the largest South Asian commercial corridors in the United States, with Indian, Pakistani, and Bangladeshi restaurants, grocers, clothing stores, and jewelry shops running in a continuous strip that extends into neighboring Woodbridge. The Indian American population of Edison exceeds 30 percent, among the highest shares of any municipality in the country.
The pharmaceutical corridor along Route 1 and the New Jersey Turnpike runs through Edison and surrounding communities. Several major drug companies operate research and administrative facilities in the township or immediately adjacent to it. The Raritan Center, one of the largest industrial parks on the East Coast, anchors the logistics and distribution side of the local economy.
