Just twenty miles northwest of Manhattan, the delightful enclave of Wayne offers residents the tranquility of the suburbs with America’s most energetic city at arm’s reach. The township is mainly residential, with winding neighborhood streets lined with beautiful houses, apartments, and condos amid lush tree cover. The extensive local retail scene includes the Willowbrook Mall on the south side as well as the Preakness Shopping Center on the north side, giving locals a wealth of options for shopping, dining, and entertainment close to home.
On the east side of town, William Paterson University enrolls over 10,000 students and employs thousands of locals. Most neighborhoods lie within walking distance of a city park, and large nature preserves like High Mountain Reserve Park and Great Piece Meadows provide great opportunities to bask in the seclusion of the great outdoors. With its exceptional public schools and low crime rate, Wayne has developed a reputation as a superb choice for folks raising families.
