Known as the “town of lakes” in the early 20th century, Byram has evolved from a community of summer lake residents to full time residents. Byram's proximity to both routes 80 and 206 helped increase the poulation of the township from about 800 in 1950 to 8,400 according to latest statistics.

Waterloo Village, 19th century Morris Canal port town, is a National Historic Site located in Byram. Sitting on the banks of the Musconectcong River in the Allamuchy Mountain State Park, this living museum, totaling over 400 acres, is managed by Waterloo Foundation for the Arts.
