Secaucus

Secaucus is the first true suburban community outside Manhattan, just five miles from Times Square. Secaucus is conveniently located in Hudson County, near a major city, yet it's a small town.

Location! Location! Location! What makes Secaucus, great for residents and visitors also makes it great for business. Secaucus is the corporate home of many major businesses and a distribution center serving Manhattan and Northern New Jersey. Its proximity to New York offers quick delivery.

Residents, as well as visitors staying at the community's many fine hotels and motels , can be in Manhattan in as little as 20 minutes via express bus. Or they quickly can be on their way to other points in via the New Jersey Turnpike or State Route 3, both of which pass through the town.

And just across the Hackensack River, a mile away, is the area's sports and entertainment center, The Meadowlands , home of the Giants, the Jets, the Nets, the Devils, and the Meadowlands Race Track .

This distribution center, cleverly separated from most of the town's residential areas, has spawned the other activity for which the community is well known - outlet shopping . In Secaucus, along with the manufacturers' outlets, you'll find the true warehouse outlets, where the store's in the front and racks of clothes are behind. Periodically the storehouses themselves are opened for that shopper's dream, a real warehouse sale!

Harmon Meadow , at the eastern side of Secaucus, has a pleasant town square atmosphere. There, you'll find many restaurants, a number of the major hotels, two Loews multiplex cinemas and the Meadowlands Exposition Center .

Sports and recreation abound for town residents. There's a swim center for summer and an ice rink for winter. There's a soccer field and a roller hockey rink. There's a boat ramp into the Hackensack River. There are gyms and fields and organized teams for virtually all outdoor and indoor sports.

Secaucus offers fine schools for its children. There are two public elementary schools and a middle-high school. There, children get a caring education and are offered a range of extra curricular activities. The new Arthur F. Couch Performing Arts Center was opened at the High School/Middle School facility in 2005. Immaculate Conception also provides parochial education up to grade eight, and there is a library preschool and three day care centers for the town's youngest.

Eight churches and a Hindu temple serve the religious needs of the community. All this and more in a town of 15,000 residents! It's a great place to live, work, raise a family, and a great place to visit.
