Location
Get Directions
Perched on the east bank of the Passaic River, Garfield is a large suburban community roughly an hour's drive northwest of Manhattan. The city is predominately residential, with unpretentious homes and apartments lining its streets and lush green parks interspersed throughout—Danhert’s Lake and 20th Century Park in particular serve as popular hangouts for locals when the weather is nice.
Rather than a centralized commercial zone, Garfield features a diverse selection of locally-owned cafes, bakeries, shops, and taverns scattered among the neighborhoods, maintaining a classic walkable environment that often allows you to run errands or get a bite to eat without having to drive. The close proximity to the big city makes it a great option for New York area commuters who prefer a quiet home environment.
