River Edge
Living in River Edge
River Edge sits directly across the Hackensack River from New Milford and shares much of its character: tidy, tree-lined streets, classic single-family homes, and a strong family-first community. What sets it apart is the commute — the borough has two of its own NJ Transit stations on the Pascack Valley Line, a genuine convenience for households heading to Hoboken and Manhattan.
River Edge is also home to Historic New Bridge Landing, the Revolutionary-era river crossing often called “the bridge that saved a nation.” Combined with well-regarded schools — shared with neighboring Oradell through the River Dell Regional district — it's a town buyers seek out by name.
