Bustling suburb with shops and restaurants
Riverside, located in the city of Paterson, has bustling sidewalks lined with shops and restaurants, offering residents the conveniences and walkability that define urban living. The east end holds most of the suburb’s homes and shops, while Bunker Hill Industrial Park is in the west end. Tucked along the banks of the Passaic River in northern New Jersey, living in Riverside gives residents proximity to New York City without the big city price tag. “A lot of buyers come from New York since it’s so expensive to live there,” says Linda Iriarte, a Broker with UNIcasa Union Realty, who’s been selling homes in the area for 27 years. “This is a great area for people looking for more comfort and space.”
