City and Town Living
The feeling you get as you walk around South Orange is one of a small town surrounding a little city. South Orange has a larger downtown than some of its neighbors, a downtown with shopping, trains and a public square. Quaint gaslights, and off street utility lines give the town a turn of the century appeal (20th century!). The wonderful neighborhoods, in the 2.8 square miles that surround downtown, Montrose Park, South Mountain, Upper Wyoming, Tuxedo Park and are the homes to almost 17,000 South Orangers. Living on tree lined streets, with access to culture and entertainment from SOPAC, the Baird Center and Seton Hall University there is never a moment to be bored. Cultural Institutions and the Village sponsor numerous events that hep make life enjoyable, including Summer Nights Taste the Music, South Next Festival and Downtown After Sundown.
South Orange is a great suburb. Tranquil streets and parks, sidewalks lined with trees and Colonial & Tudor homes, a large downtown, easy access to major work areas in NY and NJ. South Orange has a varied housing stock, with neighborhoods built up in the early 1900’s, to 1930’s, the 1950’s, and even today.
Recreational Activities
South Orange has 62 acres of parkland incorporating many facilities that provide an outlet for its residents such as baseball fields, tennis courts, soccer field, a duck pond, outdoor pool, playgrounds and a community center. There is also a sledding hill for all to enjoy during the winter months.
Like it’s neighbor Maplewood, South Orange is enveloped by natural beauty, from great street trees to the South Mountain Reservation, a recreation preserve which encompasses over 2,000 acres. At the Reservation you can hike trails or have a picnic, traverse the reservation and you can go to the Zoo, ride paddle boats, utilize the dog park or enjoy a leisurely stroll around the reservoir.
Transportation, Commuting and Travel
South Orange is only 16 miles from Manhattan, residents who travel to the New York City for employment usually do so by train. The train ride is approximately 30 minutes during the busiest hours of the day, including rush hour.
Newark Liberty International Airport is 10-15 minutes away from most of South Orange
Route 78, 24, 280, 80, 287, the GSP, and the NJ Turnpike are all close enough to make access to most of NJ very easy.
Schools and Politics
South Orange residents share a quality school district with neighboring Maplewood. The school district consists of six elementary schools, two middle schools and a single high school, which carries with it a reputation for academic excellence. In addition to advanced placement options, Columbia High School also offers vocational courses and college prep courses to help students grow. Journalism and film making classes are also available as are dozens of active clubs and two dozen varsity sports options.
The Board of Trustees is made up of six women and men as well as a mayor. If you want to get involved, vigorous public discourse is commonplace.
