BERGEN COUNTY NEIGHBORHOOD
Allendale
A classic small town with a train and a lake.
ABOUT ALLENDALE
Small-town Bergen County, in the best sense.
Allendale is a picture of small-town Bergen County: a compact downtown, Crestwood Lake for the summers, and a Main Line train station for the commute. Families are drawn by the tight community and the strong schools.
Homes lean toward classic colonials and updated capes on comfortable lots, in a borough that feels friendly, established, and easy to settle into.
People & Lifestyle
Allendale centers on its lake and its downtown. Summers mean Crestwood Lake; the rest of the year fills with community events, local shops, and an easy Main Line commute. It's a classic, close-knit town with a strong sense of place.
