Bridgeton NJ
Seabrook Farms
Family-owned frozen vegetable company, still there. Many Japanese-Americans were recruited to work there when the WWII internment camps were closed, residing in company housing with other immigrant groups & African-Americans. I have read some unpleasant accounts of life in the Seabrook company town.
Seabrook has a museum & cultural center.
