A centrally located urban neighborhood with riverfront parks and popular dining

Constable Hook serves as Bayonne's thriving downtown area at the southern tip of New Jersey’s urbanized Hudson County. With popular restaurants lining Broadway, riverfront parks bringing friends and families together during the summer, the Bayonne Bridge providing easy access to Staten Island and the rest of New York City, and pockets of retail and shopping, this neighborhood stands out as a hub of both activities and conveniences in densely packed North Jersey. “The proximity to NYC might be the obvious allure when describing the neighborhood,” Beverly Caraballo, a Realtor at Weichert Realtors says. “However, it can't be overlooked that some of the most beautiful beaches on the East Coast can be found at the Jersey Shore only 30 miles South and the Pocono Mountains a little over an hour drive to your west.”

Chorizo queso and jalapeno margarita from El Aguila Dorada

Constable Hook is also notable for its wealth of retail options. There’s a Wal-Mart Supercenter in the neighborhood for grocery shopping and everyday essentials. The Bayonne Crossing mall serves as the retail heart of Constable Hook, with big-name stores such as Michaels, Lowe’s and AutoZone, attracting customers from across city and state boundaries. In addition, local dining establishments such as El Aguila Dorada add to the neighborhood. “It is the best Mexican food I have ever tasted,” Caraballo says. “They just opened their second location a few years ago on Broadway and 19th St with a large dining room, full bar and outdoor patio. Order the Chorizo Queso and a Jalapeno Margarita.” Right down the street is Alkofeia Restaurant, which residents enjoy for its various Middle Eastern platter options.

Summer Sounds By The Bay

“We have several festivals throughout the year throughout town,” Caraballo says. “One of them is a series put on by the Bayonne Department of Recreation called Summer Sounds by the Bay Concerts. They feature live music each week throughout July and August at 16th Street Park at the amphitheater stage overlooking the Newark Bay with the most phenomenal sunsets.” Among the countless community events is the Buddy Baseball Opening Day Parade, which takes place every May and celebrates the special needs baseball league created by the Department of Recreation.

Students attend the Bayonne School District

Bayonne’s students attend one of eleven K-8 schools and Bayonne High School, the alma mater of the acclaimed stage and film actor Frank Langella, a chairman of the Federal Reserve, and several notable politicians and creatives. Two kindergarten through eighth grade options are John M. Bailey No. 12 Elementary School and Lincoln Community School, both of which earned a B-minus grade from Niche. Bayonne High School received a B grade from Niche.

Proximity to New York City and Liberty Newark International Airport

A significant benefit of living in Constable Hook is its proximity to New York City and Newark Airport. Residents can get on the light rail from the 22nd Street Station, connected by the PATH train in Jersey City, which will take people right into New York City. Residents can also use NJ Transit’s bus system using one of the many bus stations in the neighborhood. For commuters, Manhattan is a 14-mile drive, but traffic may make public transportation the more attractive option. Residents looking to fly to another city can make the 8-mile drive to Liberty Newark International Airport. Bayonne Medical Center is less than a mile away from the neighborhood for medical attention.
