Olinville is a narrow North Bronx neighborhood running along the Bronx River. The neighborhood layout is fairly typical for the borough, but residents enjoy direct access to huge greenspaces practically right next door: Bronx Park, Thain Family Forest, and Van Cortlandt Park are all easily within walking distance, and the river is lined with an extensive network of footpaths.
The corridor of eclectic shops and restaurants along White Plains Road makes it easy to walk down the street for groceries or to grab a bite to eat. Rent is fairly affordable by New York standards, and Fordham University’s campus is only a few blocks to the southwest, making Olinville a great option for college students.
