New Jersey Transit runs through Forest Hill with multiple Newark Light Rail stations in town. The community’s K-12 students attend Newark Public Schools like Ridge Street Elementary and Park Elementary. This well preserved, pre-World War II neighborhood has beautiful historic homes, as well as newly renovated apartments.
The northern part of the neighborhood is an official historic district, but this history doesn’t end there. Branch Brook Park is the town’s scenic 360-acre park with lakes, bridges, and biking and walking trails.

The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
