City - Orange

The City of Orange is a historic and largely residential community in the suburbs outside of Newark, roughly fifteen miles from Manhattan. The thriving Main Street district is packed with shops and restaurants of every kind, making life easy whether you’re running errands or just looking for a quick bite to eat.

With multiple NJ Transit stops in town, it’s easy to get around the area without a car—this combined with the abundance of affordable apartments and condos makes Orange a highly popular home base for New York-area commuters. While close to the big city, living in Orange will also allow you to take advantage of the huge nearby nature preserves, such as the South Mountain and Eagle Rock Reservations.
