Belleville, NJ Apartments for Rent

Nestled along the Passaic River just 10 miles from Manhattan, Belleville offers apartments in a community rich with history dating back to 1797. Originally known as "Second River," this Essex County township features one of the largest collections of cherry blossom trees in the region, with springtime displays throughout Branch Brook Park. Apartments in Belleville benefit from the township's convenient location near major highways including Routes 7 and 21, providing direct access to Newark, New York City, and throughout northern New Jersey.

Belleville's neighborhoods are served by multiple transportation options, including the Newark Light Rail's Silver Lake station. The township offers proximity to Branch Brook Park's extensive trail system and seasonal cherry blossom festival. Clara Maass Medical Center anchors the healthcare services in the area, while Washington Avenue serves as the main commercial corridor. The township's historic architecture and tree-lined streets reflect its evolution from a 19th-century industrial center to today's residential community.
