The borough was officially incorporated in 1894 as Roselle.
Today, this terrific community features beautiful parks and great shopping. Warinanco Park, the borough's largest park, offers ball fields, a running track, a playground, pedal boats, an ice skating rink, a fitness trail, a bicycle path, fishing, a spray pool, tennis courts, picnic areas, and shuffleboard. Roselle's tree-lined streets are mainly residential, with a shopping district located between Westfield Avenue and West 1st Avenue.

The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
