Hillsdale has a fairly impressive sporting heritage, with plenty of players for the New York Yankees hailing from the borough, including Johnny Kucks, who won the last game of the World Series in 1956.
The borough is in Bergen County, New Jersey, and has a population of 10,219 as of the 2010 census. It covers about 3 square miles and is located roughly 10 miles from North Manhattan as the crow flies, making it a popular place to live for those working across the Hudson River in New York. Being in a heavily suburban area, Hillsdale is surrounded by other boroughs and cities, with several notable parks and lakes in the region, particularly over towards the Hudson. A short drive towards the northwest will open you up to a range of state parks and forest, including Harriman State Park, Wawayanda State Park, and Sterling Forest. See more
Parking can be at a premium in some cities where spaces are challenging to find. Some Hillsdale apartments offer parking options, either outside in a common area or within a private garage.
Ask about the stipulations around the parking. Those may include how many guests are allowed and where tenants park.
Some apartments may only allow parking in front of your own unit. Guest parking may be in a common area for up to one person.
If parking is scarce, look around the area before you sign a lease. Ample street parking in a neighborhood championed for its safety is probably fine. However, it’s probably not worth signing a lease if it means battling for daily parking for you and your guests.
Research whether you need a city permit to park in the neighborhood. Look into the associated costs and what to do about visitors who need parking.
Some tenants prefer garage parking near their units. However, an open-air lot may prove cheaper.
Keep in mind that the cost of wear and tear from parking outside can add up. It may be less expensive, in the long run, to look for an apartment with garage parking.
