City - Highland Park

Nestled along the Raritan River in the suburbs of New Jersey, Highland Park features a safe community and a college town vibe. Surrounded by campuses of Rutgers University, Highland Park is the perfect place for students and faculty. Rentals rage from affordable to upscale, offering something for everyone. This college town is also known for its top-notch public school system, offering gems like Highland Park High School.

Markets, coffee shops, cafes, banks, and convenience stores can all be found in Highland Park, along with a few small businesses along Raritan Avenue. However, this suburb is mainly residential, offering a tight-knit community and family-friendly atmosphere. Highland Park is located about 35 miles southwest of New York City and about 65 miles northeast of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Though the commute may be a bit long, Highland Park is situated between two major metropolises, making for an easy weekend getaway.

School data provided by 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.

Loved it!

We lived here for 3 years. Tyhesha, the property manager, is very responsive and literally on top of everything! Maintenance team is awesome. Highly recommend!

Property Manager at Orchard Gardens, Responded To This Review

Thank you so much for your 5-Star review of our community as well as the "shout-out" to our on-site Property Manager and Maintenance Team! We sincerely appreciate you! JCMLiving Resident Services Team

Terrible Maintenance

Filthy hallways. Rent rises by $70 a year. They get you by posting specials, after that. You get screwed if you're planning on renewing lease. No assigned parking. Very little heat provided. Neighbors are buying space heaters. DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY with this place.
