Union City, NJ Apartments for Rent

Union City perches atop the Palisades in Hudson County, delivering sweeping views of the Manhattan skyline while keeping its own distinct character shaped by waves of German and Cuban immigration. Once the "Embroidery Capital of the United States" and nicknamed "Havana on the Hudson," this densely populated spot has long been an affordable gateway to the New York metro area. If you're hunting for apartments for rent in Union City, you'll discover everything from studios averaging around $1,145 to spacious three-bedroom units, with many apartment communities just a short walk from Bergenline Avenue, one of New Jersey's longest and busiest commercial corridors.

Renting in Union City means easy access to Manhattan through nearby bus routes and the Hudson-Bergen Light Rail system, making it a smart choice for commuters who want lower housing costs than neighboring Hoboken or Weehawken. The city's compact two-square-mile footprint puts most amenities within reach, including the diverse restaurants, bakeries, and specialty shops along Bergenline Avenue that showcase the area's strong Latin American heritage. Local parks like Washington Park and Elysian Park give you green space for recreation, while cultural venues including the Park Performing Arts Center keep entertainment close by. With average one-bedroom rents around $1,588, Union City brings you metropolitan proximity and cultural richness at a more accessible price point than many surrounding Hudson County communities.
