Live near transit and Branch Brook Park in Upper Roseville
Upper Roseville sits in Newark ’s North Ward, less than 5 miles from Downtown Newark. Its streets are lined with older homes like American Foursquares, Colonial Revivals and multifamily properties that draw a mix of renters and buyers. What keeps people here is the balance. You're close to the Newark Light Rail and major highways that make trips into New York doable, but you're also right next to Branch Brook Park and its cherry blossoms. Bloomfield Avenue runs through it all with restaurants, shops and bus stops, so there's plenty to walk to without leaving Upper Roseville.
Upper Roseville homes tend to cost less than Hudson-adjacent areas
More than half of Upper Roseville’s residents are renters who live in multifamily homes or apartments. For buyers, the neighborhood is known for its early and mid-20th-century housing stock. That includes brick brownstones and fully detached American Foursquares and Colonial Revivals, though single-family homes don’t come on the market as often as multifamily properties. Single-family houses generally sell from the mid-$300,000s to the lower $500,000s, while multifamily properties go from the upper $400,000s to the upper $900,000s.
Upper Roseville’s median sale price tends to be lower than what you’ll see in Hudson-adjacent communities like Hoboken and Jersey City. “We call it North Newark around here. The people we’ve sold homes to were looking for an area they felt comfortable raising their children in that was more affordable. Not areas closer to the river that they would be priced out of,” says Jacqueline Hendy, a local Realtor with The Kinsella Hendy Team at Coldwell Banker.
Upper Roseville features American Foursquares dating back to the early 20th century.
Colonial Revival-style homes are common in this Newark neighborhood.

Public transit and highways connect commuters to Manhattan
Upper Roseville is close to public transit and major highways, so it’s well-connected to the rest of Newark and New York City. The Newark Light Rail runs right along the neighborhood’s eastern edge and stops at Branch Brook Park, Davenport Avenue and Bloomfield Avenue. These stops are within walking distance of most homes, and the light rail gets you to Newark Penn Station in under 20 minutes. From there, NJ Transit trains offer service to Manhattan ’s Penn Station and Newark Liberty International Airport, while PATH trains connect to the Financial District. Several NJ Transit bus routes run along Bloomfield Avenue, and drivers can take the Essex Freeway to connect with the New Jersey Turnpike and Garden State Parkway.
Walk to Branch Brook Park and Upper Roseville's Kasberger Field
Branch Brook Park is home to the country's largest collection of cherry blossom trees, with more than 5,000 in bloom each spring. That display draws crowds to the park during the Essex County Cherry Blossom Festival, which features races, live music and Japanese cultural demonstrations. During the rest of the year, people head to the park for its dog run, athletic facilities and paved paths for walking, running and biking. A quieter neighborhood option is Kasberger Field, which has ball fields, batting cages and a small playground
