Nestled just off the Hudson River, Union City is a historic suburb with a rich cultural heritage and a tight-knit community. Easy access to the Lincoln Tunnel makes it a popular home base for New York commuters seeking more affordable rentals. Though affordable compared to New York City, Union City is home to everything from luxury apartments and condos to longstanding brick homes.
The northern half of town is where you’ll find most of the commercial activity, generally clustered around Bergenline Avenue. Union City’s diverse community and array of unique eateries is a major allure. Union City is home to several community parks like Jose Marti Field, Ellsworth Park, and Union City Reservoir Park. Just outside of Union City lies Hamilton Park, a famous green space with scenic gardens, summer concerts, and beautiful views of New York City’s skyline across the Hudson River.
