About Ridgefield Park, NJ Real Estate Market
Ridgefield Park is one of the only four places in New Jersey operating a Walsh Act village type of government among the 565 municipalities statewide. The formation of the village started in 1892 within the Ridgefield Township, based on the results of a referendum that came out in the same year. The village of Ridgefield gained portions from Ridgefield Township only for the establishment of Ridgefield Park as a new village. In 1897, Overpeck Township was created to co-exist with Ridgefield Park, which became Ridgefield Park Township in 1938. The naming of the Ridgefield is derived from the name of the area’s terrain.
Given that it is a village, the New Jersey real estate options are limited here, with the Ridgefield village mostly having small-sized homes for sale preferred in New Jersey by nuclear families. On every Fourth of July, Ridgefield Park hosts a community parade, the oldest event taking place every year in New Jersey.
