City - Summit

Summit is a small suburban city positioned about 25 miles west of Manhattan along Interstate 78. The close proximity to New York is ideal for commuters, especially with rail service available from Downtown. The local schools perform exceptionally well and the crime rate is among the lowest in the state, making Summit one of the most desirable communities in the region for folks raising families. Rentals range from neighborhood homes to budget-friendly apartments and condos.

The charming Downtown district is loaded with popular locally-owned businesses, from eclectic coffeehouses to international bistros to unique specialty shops, often housed in beautifully preserved historic storefronts. The city offers ample opportunities to spend quality time outdoors, with the massive Watchung Reservation to the south and Canoe Brook Country Club to the north, plus countless parks and nature preserves nearby.
