Tremont is a hilly neighborhood that features a variety of historic homes and low to mid-rise apartment buildings. Adjacent to the Bronx Park and the Bronx Zoo, this neighborhood sits just south of 181st Street and just north of Interstate 95 and Crotona Park. With several parks in and around the neighborhood, Tremont provides just enough green space to offset its urban setting. Similar to many New York neighborhoods, Tremont features brick buildings adorned with fire escapes, corner markets, locally owned shops, and wide, pedestrian-friendly streets.

With Manhattan just seven miles southwest of Tremont, commuting into the city is simple, especially with easy access to mass transit. Yankee Stadium, Fordham University, and New York Botanical Garden sit near Tremont as well.
