Rutherford is a large suburban borough that stretches between the Passaic River and the Hackensack River about twelve miles west of Manhattan. The close proximity to New York and the relatively affordable rental market makes Rutherford a great option for commuters, while the terrific local schools and low crime rate boost the appeal for families.
The Downtown area along Park Avenue is a charming walkable district packed with locally-owned restaurants, coffeehouses, and specialty shops, creating a popular destination for locals and visitors alike. Drop into Erie Coffeeshop & Bakery for breakfast before catching the train, drop into the historic Center Cinemas to catch a flick, or unwind after hours at The New Park Tavern.
Living in Rutherford also puts you just a few blocks from MetLife Stadium and the Meadowlands Sports Complex, allowing you to walk to Giants and Jets games as well as the concerts and special events that are constantly rotating through the arena.
