Totowa (pronounced TOE-tuh-wuh) is a Native American word that means between mountains and water or literally falling water. Totowa, NJ, gets its name because of its close proximity to Passaic Falls, a large waterfall in the area.
Totowa may be more than 100 years old -- founded in 1898 -- and it's still looking great! Totowa is a borough that takes up about four square miles in Passaic County, New Jersey. According to the 2010 Census the current population is around 10,844 people. Totowa has a bit of an odd combination of residential areas; on the one hand, it is smack dab in the middle of Passaic County and there are parts of it that are pretty urban. But because it is fairly spread out, there are large sections of residential areas uncharacteristic of an urban center -- so it has both an urban and a suburban feel, depending upon where you're at.

Finding condos for rent in Totowa is almost no different than renting an apartment in a big complex. The real difference is the ownership. Condos are owned by individuals within the same building. However, apartments in a large complex are owned by a single landlord or property management group.
Sometimes the price of condos in Totowa may prove cheaper. The owners are often moving onto a new home or leaving the city and just need someone to cover the costs. Apartment complexes are designed to deal with tenant issues, make repairs, and care for the property. Condo owners will still deal with repairs and upkeep but may need more time to address a problem, especially if they don’t live nearby. However, condo owners have a more vested interest in the property and keeping their tenants happy to reduce turnover.
Choose the best condos for rent in Totowa that meet your wishlist for budget, amenities, and layout. You probably won’t notice the difference between the condos and apartments you tour.
