So Close to All the Action Now! 4.5 rating By Anonymous ( May 16, 2018) I discovered Roselle Park by mistake when I was relocated to New Jersey for work and I took the wrong exit off the Parkway. I was looking for Irvington, but found Roselle Park and never looked back. This beautiful city is what I envision when I think Garden State, and it is far e ...Read More nough to NYC that I can escape all that traffic every day.

Living in Roselle Park means I get to enjoy some of the best food from a variety of restaurants in the region. I have found excellent Chinese, Italian, and Mexican dining establishments here, all within a short walk of my house.

My neighborhood in Roselle Park is amazingly quiet too. The best areas in Roselle Park are the shopping centers. I could spend days in the high-end shops on the edge of town, or get to the Turnpike and hit any number of impressive Premium Outlet Malls. I'm an hour drive to Atlantic City, the Jersey Shore Beaches, and everything Manhattan. Read Less
