Why Live in Downtown Camden

Downtown Camden, located along the Delaware River, has seen significant revitalization, transforming from a manufacturing hub to a vibrant urban area. The Central Waterfront District is a key attraction, drawing visitors with highlights like the Adventure Aquarium and live performances at the Wiggins Waterfront Riverstage and Freedom Mortgage Pavilion. Rutgers University’s Camden campus plays a pivotal role in the community, contributing to local infrastructure and economic growth. The neighborhood features a mix of redeveloped apartment buildings and historic rowhouses from the 1800s and early 1900s, though residential options are limited. Despite efforts to reduce crime through educational and recreational programs by Rutgers and local nonprofits, the area still faces challenges. Wiggins Waterfront Park offers outdoor activities, while Roosevelt Plaza Park provides a green space for relaxation and events like the Spring Lunchtime Concert Series. Dining options are diverse, with popular spots including Camden Arts Yard, Camden Diner, and Nuanced Cafe. The area is well-connected, with bus routes, the Red Line, and proximity to the Benjamin Franklin Bridge facilitating easy access to Philadelphia. For groceries, locals frequent Market Gourmet, with ACME Markets located 4 miles away. Emergency services are readily available at Cooper University Hospital, less than a mile from downtown.
