Shiloh is a borough in Cumberland County, in the U.S. state of New Jersey. It is part of the Vineland–Bridgeton metropolitan statistical area for statistical purposes.[18] As of the 2020 United States census, the borough's population was 444,[9] a decrease of 72 (−14.0%) from the 2010 census count of 516,[19][20] which in turn reflected a decline of 18 (−3.4%) from the 534 counted in the 2000 census.[21]

Shiloh was incorporated as a borough by an act of the New Jersey Legislature on April 9, 1929, from portions of Hopewell Township and Stow Creek Township, based on the results of a referendum held on May 16, 1929.[22][23]

It is a dry town, where alcohol is not permitted to be sold by law, though alcohol is available at the winery in the borough.[24][25]
