(1) The current and future health-care needs of 
veterans residing in the eight southern counties of 
New Jersey are not being fully met by the Depart-
ment of Veterans Affairs. 
(2) Travel times for southern New Jersey vet-
erans to existing Department of Veterans Affairs 
health-care facilities in Pennsylvania and Delaware 
fall within the Department of Veterans Affairs 
health-planning criteria, but those criteria fail to 
recognize that the area is largely rural and its road-
ways are congested, creating significant access bar-
riers to veterans in need of care and thereby result-
ing in suppressed demand for care. 
(3) Projections of future growth in demand for 
health care by veterans in southern New Jersey sup-
port sustainable enrollment of veterans needing De-
partment of Veterans Affairs health care. 
(4) The number of veterans residing in south-
ern New Jersey is increasing as more veterans retire 
in the area and new veterans seek services in the 
wake of large-scale deployments of National Guard 
and Reservists from the area. According to United 
States census data, the veteran population in the 
eight counties of southern New Jersey is greater 
than 235,000.
