Glen Ridge Borough has many amenities within walking distance including the direct train to NYC, and easy access to Montclair's up-scale restaurants, theaters, and art museum. The in-town restaurant "Fitzgerald's 1928" serves an eclectic, up-scale menu and is a favorite place for residents to get together for occasions. Glen Ridge is family oriented with an excellent school system that graduates students that go to many competitive universities. The town has a mix of housing ranging from small 1920's Colonials and Tutors along with the larger homes that line Ridgewood Avenue. The Gas Lamp Players, an amateur community theater group puts on several plays a year, with "acting positions" open to children as well as adults who would like to participate. Glen Ridge has several parks and athletic fields for for school and community use, a nice town library and the restored Victorian train station at the center of town for direct travel into New York City.

    "Glen Ridge is a family friendly town with excellent schools, shopping and amenities nearby, several local parks and ball fields in different sections of town and a NY mid-town direct train accessible to everyone. Houses range from large victorian, tudor and colonial homes on prestigious Ridgewood Avenue to beautiful and historic 3-5 bedroom homes on secondary streets. The streets are lined with 19th century gas lamps giving the town a very historic feel. The Glen Ridge Country Club is located in town and offers golfing, tennis, swimming, and other amenities if you are so inclined to become a member. People move into town with families because of the outstanding schools, with many graduates going on to competitive colleges and universities. There are many social and cultural amenities close by including excellent restaurants, clubs and museums in nearby Montclair. There is also the local watering hole ( Fitzgerald’s 1928) where many residents gather for a drink or good meal right in town. The town offers a unique blend of small town family living, with NYC is still very accessible by the direct train located in town. Come and see what a special place this is to live!"

    "Glen Ridge has top rated schools, easy (train and bus) access to Manhattan, historic district gas street lamps, wide range of housing...from $300k to $3million. Excellent police force! great parks and right next to Montclair which offers all the restaurants (most of them BYOB) and night life you can imagine! Great town for families, couples and singles with views of Manhattan from certain parts of town!"

    "I lived in Glen Ridge for 25 years. I was drawn to the town for it's beauty, trees, wonderful homes and architecture, and mostly for it's top rated schools. I worked in NYC which is only 15 miles due East with train and bus transportation very close by. Glen Ridge is definitely for families. It's a very friendly and safe environment. Because of its small size, between 7 & 8000 residents you will meet and have many friends. Only negative are the high taxes."
