Fort Lee is a suburban borough located where the New Jersey Turnpike meets the George Washington Bridge, right across the river from Washington Heights. The combination of excellent public schools, very low crime, and easy access to Manhattan make Fort Lee a highly popular location for commuters raising families.
The center of town is filled by a large shopping and dining district anchored by the Oaktree Mall, which draws large crowds from the surrounding communities. Fort Lee Historic Park and the Hudson Palisades cover much of the borough’s waterfront area, providing scenic views and tranquil natural environments for your leisure time. Rental rates can be rather steep, but there are numerous apartments, condos, and houses in the borough that are quite affordable.
