Wanaque is a small town where family and community are held close to everyone's hearts. In 1870, three little boys got lost in the mountains while collecting nuts and died of hypothermia when night fell. Nearly a century and a half later, locals still talk about them as if those kids were their own children.

Dutch settlers bought Wanaque from Native Americans in 1729. For the next 150 years or so, those settlers farmed on the land and sold wool from their sheep. During the early years of the Industrial Revolution, Wanaque played a central part, hosting some of the first iron mines. Today, it is a thriving, modern town that holds over 11,100 people (per 2010 U.S. Census data) in its 7.99 square feet of land.

Moving to Wanaque

Expect to pay premium rates for renting an apartment in Wanaque -- think the same rents you would pay for a studio in Manhattan, although you may get a lot more space for the price. You'll also want to take some time to look at various rental units before you sign a lease. It's not always easy to find an apartment that meets your needs in Wanaque, so you'll want to take three to six months to conduct your search.

When you're ready to move in, you'll need to have documentation to help support your application. Make sure you have ID from your state of residence (if you're moving from another state, your driver's license from your current state is good enough) as well as proof of your income. In most cases, you'll want to have prove your flow of income before you move. Three pay stubs should be enough to prove that you can afford to pay the rent. If you're self-employed, you'll need to have records of your last three months' income as well as your tax return from last year to give landlords a clear picture of your income level. You'll also want to have a letter of reference from your current and previous landlords vouching for the fact that you pay rent on time and follow all apartment rules.
