Harrington Park, NJ Area Guide

A verdant, quiet northern New Jersey suburb

Suburban Family-Friendly Community Convenient

Harrington Park sits on the shores of the Oradell Reservoir in northern New Jersey, not far from the state’s border with New York. This upscale suburban area attracts a broad range of renters looking for a convenient yet quiet rental in a close-knit community. There are local restaurants and boutiques to enjoy all around Harrington Park in communities like Norwood and Northvale. To the east lies the Palisades, a sprawling park that also surrounds the interstate parkway with the same name.

Hackensack is just a 20-minute drive south, meaning Harrington Park is far from secluded from the numerous cities in eastern New Jersey. Want to head into New York City? Palisades Parkway will have you in the center of Manhattan in just 30 minutes (on a good day).
