It is also 14.1 miles (22.69 km) east of New York and the bright lights of the Big Apple. It is a growing city that is near enough to many major metropolitan areas while far enough to take residents away from the stresses of large city living.

What is the history of Orange?

The township was created in 1806 as a breakaway from the greater Newark area. Additional parts of the town were formed from the former Clinton township in 1834, it reincorporated as a town in 1860, became a city in 1872, and reorganized as a town in 1982. Orange, along with the abutting East, South, and West Orange townships form what are known as the “Oranges.”

The township of Orange is situated on the Newark/Mount Pleasant Turnpike. This road connects the town to Newark, Morristown, NJ, and Easton, PA. The town also has access to the Morristown Line of the NJ Transit Authority.

Why live in Orange, NJ?

Orange was once a place where weary travelers found a place to rest as they traveled east and west. What they have left behind was a town with a rich industrial history, including hat makers, breweries, shoemakers, and tanners. They left behind buildings representative of a time when the region was a beacon of manufacturing excellence. It is a town of well-maintained homes and with its status change to township in 1982, it has been able to bring in the Federal assistance necessary to rebuild and revitalize areas in need of improvement. Moving to Orange now is the best decision in light of the improvements that are being made for its future.

What Orange landmarks should I see?

Orange was once home to several hatmakers, including the famous “No Name Hat Company.” The company, formed near the time of the founding of Orange in the early 1800s, was the creation of the father of John Stetson, a name you may be familiar with as Stetson would break out on his own, move to Philadelphia and formed The Stetson Company in 1865 (“Stetson Hats”). The former factory at 50 and 55 South Essex Avenue, is being renovated into lofts and mix-use retail space. This is necessary to bring back needed commerce and a renewed sense of pride in the city.

What is there to do around Orange?

Orange may be a sleepy suburban community, but it isn’t without its charm. Landmarks include St. John’s Church, which was built in 1880, has a functioning pipe organ, Belgian altar screen, and all the trappings of a gothic cathedral. It is located at 94 Ridge Street and within walking distance of the NJ Transit. There are plenty of restaurants, cafes, and eateries available for residents to grab a meal, catch up with friends, and grab a quick bite.

Any annual festivals or Orange events to know?

The festival is a daylong celebration of food, music, arts and craft, dancing, and all things Caribbean.

Where are the nearby vacation spots?

The two hours spent in the car can be rewarded with the sands of the Atlantic City beaches, casinos, and other entertainment venues. An obvious vacation spot for area residents is New York. The 14.1-mile trip to the Big Apple brings you into the heart of the city, with access to the theater district, waterfront area (with its shops and fresh markets), and restaurants, some of the finest in the world.
