About the Ridgewood Real Estate Market
Ridgewood consistently ranks among the top NJ towns for school quality, walkability, and quality of life — and the real estate market reflects it. Single-family homes typically list from the mid-$800Ks for smaller cape cods up to $3M+ for renovated colonials in the West Side and Heights neighborhoods. The downtown — anchored by East Ridgewood Avenue — is a true village center with independent restaurants, retail, and the historic train station. Direct NJ Transit Main Line service to Hoboken (~40 min) connects to PATH for Manhattan; some peak express trains run to Penn Station. Properties near the train and within walking distance of downtown carry a premium. Inventory turns over slowly — many families relocate to Ridgewood for schools and stay through the kids' college years. Property taxes are notably high (often $20K-$40K+ annually on larger homes) but supported by school district quality.
