In 2007, New Jersey Magazine named Secaucus the 11th best town in New Jersey to live in based on education, recreation, crime rate, town services and economics. It's the best of two worlds! Secaucus is the first true suburban community outside Manhattan, just 5 miles from Times Square. What makes Secaucus great for residents and visitors, also makes it great for business. It's the corporate home of many major businesses and distribution centers servicing Manhattan and Northern New Jersey.
Just across the Hackensack River, a mile away, is the area's sports and entertainment center,The Meadowlands Complex, home to the Giants, Jets, Nets, Devils, concerts, circuses, ice shows, weekly flea markets and the Meadowlands Race Track.
Secaucus's housing is divided into two distinct communities: the town proper, consisting mainly of 1950's & 60's single and two-family homes, and Harmon Cove, a gated condo community built in the 1980's along the Hackensack River, and the Harmon Cove Towers hi-rise. The last two years have seen a rise of new, brick 2-3-4 family homes taking the place of older ones as the town's popularity has grown. With a thorough knowledge of the area, the sales associates at De Ruggiero Realtors have access to all available apartment rentals, condos, single family and multi-family homes for sale.
Sports and recreation abound: a swim center, an ice rink, soccer field, roller hockey rink, boat trips on the Hackensack and many organized town activities. In January, 2009, the brand new Recreation Center opened, featuring an olympic indoor swimming pool, basketball courts, indoor track and full gym. This community is also well known for its' factory outlet stores serving a customer base that is mainly from Manhattan and northern New Jersey.
A wonderful family community!
