History

The paper was founded in 1958 by S.W. Calkins, who already owned the Bucks County Courier Times in Bucks County, Pennsylvania and The Herald-Standard in Uniontown, Pennsylvania. At the urging of builder William Levitt, Calkins began the Levittown Times in now Willingboro, New Jersey, with offices and a printing facility on U.S. Route 130. In 2008, print operations were shifted to a new facility in Falls Township, Pennsylvania along with the Bucks County Courier Times and The Intelligencer. In 2017, Calkins Media was acquired by GateHouse Media.

The New Jersey operation was relocated to Willingboro and renamed the Burlington County Times.
