Though just an hour from Manhattan, Berkley Heights seems like a world away. Bordered by the scenic Passaic River and Watchung Mountains, what was once a sleepy farming and resort community is today a town full of beautiful homes, highly regarded public schools and a vibrant social scene. It’s no wonder that Berkeley Height is frequently ranked as one of the top small towns to live in the country. Ideal for families, there is homey feel and a welcoming atmosphere that is reinforced by the many street fairs, festivals and other town-wide events and activities, such as the annual Barn-B-Q Trail Festival in the historic Deserted Village and summer concerts in the park, that are held thoughout the year.
