I noticed we have a new look in downtown Tuckerton. The gas station located at the center of town is now PK Fuel. The filling station has a new look and colors as your drive through Tuckerton on Route 9. The former Delta station is now PK Fuel.

Another business in Tuckerton that is getting ready for the upcoming spring and summer seasons is Stewart's and they will be open before you know it. Stewart's will re-open for another tasty season on April 6th, so that's right around the corner.

I think we are all in agreement when I say "root beer" is the first thing that you think when someone mentions Stewart's. Nothing like a cold frosty mug of Stewart's root beer. At least once a summer I have to visit Stewart's for a hot dog and mug of root beer, it's just a thing.

So there you go, two Tuckerton businesses getting ready for Spring. The new PK Fuel and the re-opening of the iconic Stewart's. If you see new or existing businesses opening/re-opening for the upcoming spring and summer season at the Shore, let us know and post your comments below. We always love hearing from you and your input.

LOOK: Here are the 50 best beach towns in America

Every beach town has its share of pluses and minuses, which got us thinking about what makes a beach town the best one to live in. To find out, Stacker consulted data from WalletHub, released June 17, 2020, that compares U.S. beach towns. Ratings are based on six categories: affordability, weather, safety, economy, education and health, and quality of life. The cities ranged in population from 10,000 to 150,000, but they had to have at least one local beach listed on TripAdvisor. Read the full methodology here. From those rankings, we selected the top 50. Readers who live in California and Florida will be unsurprised to learn that many of towns featured here are in one of those two states.

LOOK: Here are the best lake towns to live in

Many of the included towns jump out at the casual observer as popular summer-rental spots--the Ozarks' Branson, Missouri, or Arizona's Lake Havasu--it might surprise you to dive deeper into some quality-of-life offerings beyond the beach and vacation homes. You'll likely pick up some knowledge from a wide range of Americana: one of the last remaining 1950s-style drive-ins in the Midwest; a Florida town that started as a Civil War veteran retirement area; an island boasting some of the country's top public schools and wealth-earners right in the middle of a lake between Seattle and Bellevue; and even a California town containing much more than Johnny Cash's prison blues.
