Clementon is a borough in Camden County, in the southern portion of New Jersey.

Clementon is named after Samuel Clement of Haddonfield, who around 1811 purchased the local glass works, renamed them the Gloucester Glass Works, and named the settlement around the plant Clementon village.

The glass industry began in Clementon around 1800, when Jonathon Haines built a glass factory on a large hill across the street from the modern-day Clementon Park.

The Borough of Clementon was created on February 13, 1925, from Clementon Township, one of nine municipalities created from the now-defunct township, based on a referendum held on March 17, 1925.

The 2020 United States census counted 5,338 people in Clementon, its highest decennial count ever, living in 2,207 households.

Clementon sits on Clementon Lake, which is the site of Clementon Park and Splash World, a trolley park that first opened in 1907 and is one of the oldest operating amusement parks in the country.

Clementon Park was home to the Jack Rabbit, a wooden roller coaster built in 1919 by the Philadelphia Toboggan Company that was one of the oldest remaining coasters in the country when it was taken out of service in 2002 and demolished in 2007.

The borough's current wooden coaster, Hell Cat, operates at Clementon Park and Splash World within the borough.
