Located about fifteen miles west of Manhattan, the borough of Caldwell is a charming community that combines the convenience of the suburbs with distinctive small-town flair. Bloomfield Avenue runs through the center of town, forming the main commercial district – this is where you’ll find everything from the local grocers to popular hangouts like the Ringside Pub to the historic Bow Tie Caldwell Cinemas.
Grover Cleveland Park on the south side is a great place to spend time outdoors, with footpaths, playgrounds, and a scenic pond. Caldwell is the home of Caldwell University, a small Catholic liberal arts college on the south side of town. With its close proximity to New York, excellent public schools, and low crime rate, Caldwell is a popular spot for commuters raising families.
