Parsippany Apartments for Rent

The Place Where the River Winds Through the Valley

If you're hoping to rent an apartment in a city with a lot of heart and want to join a warm, welcoming community, Parsippany-Troy Hills, New Jersey (or Parsippany for short) may just be the place for you. Around 50,000 people currently call this town home. It's big enough so that there's always something going on and yet it’s still small enough to make it easy to get to know the neighbors. Residents can enjoy the natural beauty of the garden state every day of the year; there are more parks here than in most other similarly-sized cities in the nation. If you're looking for a little more action, it's not a long drive into the big cities of New Jersey and New York either.

High to Low

Depending on the part of town you move to, rental rates in Parsippany can range from quite affordable to fairly outrageous. You should shop around when trying to move into town so that you don't overpay for a subpar apartment.

Live on Stage

Theater lovers who move to Parsippany can laugh and cry from the audience of the Woman's Theater Company. This professional theater produces comedic and dramatic shows by and about women, though men are welcomed to come and watch. There are a number of other theaters in the area as well, giving renters plenty of options when it comes to heading out for dinner and a show. Of course New York City's theater district, Broadway, is an easy drive away as well, if you can stomach forking over upwards of a hundred dollars a ticket. If not, the theaters of New Jersey serve up great entertainment for much less.

Getting to Know Your Neighbors

Parsippany is one of the friendliest cities around. People who live in this town are more than welcoming to newcomers, making this an easy town to move to. You can get together with neighbors over coffee or dinner at one of the many top notch restaurants in town. Or mingle at one of the local celebrations like the Fourth of July fireworks shows and winter holiday parades.

Play Ball

When it comes to sports, the people of New Jersey take things deadly seriously. Sports fans will be happy to hear that this is a state that loves to spend an afternoon at the game, whether the game is football, hockey, basketball, baseball or soccer. Apartment renters in Parsippany can get together with friends and neighbors to watch the game on someone's big screen TV, or head into the city to see the games live. If you're into football or baseball, you'll find your teams just over the bridges in New York City. Though there are a couple to choose from in the Big Apple, most residents of the Garden State root for the Yankees in baseball and the Giants in football.

Parsippany Parks

One of the goals that the town has achieved is to have a park within walking distance of each of its residents. There are 31 different parks in town, the smallest being only a third of an acre and the largest around 350 acres. With such easy access to the great outdoors, you’ll never have to miss out on another beautiful day. The town's parks are a great place bike, stroll, picnic or watch for birds. Some of the other city parks have access to water for boating and fishing, plus you’ll find playground equipment for the kids to play on. Athletic renters can also find sports fields to play on. Challenging the neighbors to a friendly game of soccer or softball is a great way to make some new friends when you first move into town.
