A revitalizing urban neighborhood, right outside Downtown Newark
While the northern part of Arlington has a storied past as the original site of steam engine use, Arlington proper too has an industrial heritage as a former transportation hub. Today, this gridded neighborhood of long streets is full of plenty of places to eat, as well as diverse housing styles. “It’s a busy, growing area with an urban look comparable to Jersey City,” says Rosmena DeSa, a broker for RE/MAX New Millennium Group. Arlington is right outside Downtown Newark, too, which affects this trend. “In south Newark, close to East Orange, you’ll still see a lot of blue collar areas, but closer to downtown it seems like everything is revitalizing and being renovated,” says Thomas Mosera, a real estate agent with Keller Williams. There’s a stable base of houses of worship, too, including Cavalry United Methodist, Gospel Light Baptist and Saint Stephen’s Roman Catholic Church. With several small parks dotting the landscape, and Kearny High anchoring the south side, Arlington quickly stacks up the kinds of amenities that round out an urban residential experience.
Colonial and Victorian features on homes in the $600,000 range
Many of Arlington’s homes have a low-slung style that’s reminiscent of minimalist ranches. Usually fronted by a sharp gabled roof and a few ornamental hedges, these homes are entered by an off-center door perched above steps. Outfitted with a yard, a basement and two or three bedrooms, these properties sell around $500,000. Two-story homes with driveways begin to appear around the $600,000 mark, and these present colonial and Victorian features for a decisively ornate look. House facades are bolder colors, too: instead of creams and tans, there are yellows and slate blues. “There’s also a lot of new construction for two-family homes or three-family homes,” DeSa says. “These can go anywhere from $900,000 to over a million.” The neighborhood scores a 3 out of 10 on the CAP crime index.

Nest Cafe brings a hip look to the dining scene
“There are a lot of Latin American restaurants in Arlington,” says DeSa. The diversity continues on Midland Avenue, which presents Japanese, Italian, Chinese and American eateries. There are also classic, casual options like delis and bars. Peppino’s Pizza & Pasta is placed next to a cocktail lounge and laundromat, giving it the feel of being integrated with the neighborhood’s fabric. Nest Café brings a hip environment, speaking to the Arlington’s revitalization: customers can sip specialty drinks next to plants, while children amuse themselves on an indoor playground. Groceries can be picked up on the north end, at Super Foodtown.

Town Hall Circle is a place to rest and reflect
Bell Park is a little retreat packed with several playground structures, neatly bordering a residential street of colonial homes. Hickory Park has a playground too as well as basketball courts, and it sits in front of Gunnell Oval, a sports complex with baseball diamonds and soccer fields. Town Hall Circle is intended for rest and reflection, decked out with pergolas, flower beds and statues.

Walkable streets, but buses are also available
Arlington is walkable, with many homes fronted by sidewalks, making it easy to reach the several parks and eateries that fill out the neighborhood. But public transportation is a widely available option, too, like on Elm Street for north-south travel and intersecting Quincy Avenue for east-west traveling. Kearny Avenue on the west side also features several bus stops, and this is one of the key commercial corridors separating Arlington from neighboring Manor Section.
