Centered on Perth Amboy’s Raritan Bay waterfront, 08861 blends historic character with a lively, multicultural energy. You’ll find the colonial-era Proprietary House, the Ferry Slip Museum’s summer concerts, and a walkable downtown along Smith Street where Latin and Iberian eateries, bakeries, and independent cafes mingle with mercados and everyday services. Bayside promenades at Sadowski Waterfront Park and the Harborwalk make it easy for sunset strolls, jogging, and dog walks, and marinas and the Raritan Bay Yacht Club support kayaking, sailing, and fishing. The vibe is friendly and family- and pet-welcoming, with four-season weather and refreshing bay breezes in summer.

Commuting is straightforward via NJ Transit’s Perth Amboy Station on the North Jersey Coast Line, local buses, and quick access to Route 35, Route 440, the Outerbridge Crossing, the Garden State Parkway, and the Turnpike. Daily conveniences include ShopRite of Perth Amboy, corner grocers, coffee shops, and gyms like Planet Fitness. Recent Zillow market trends show a median rent around $2,200, with most listings roughly $1,700–$2,800 depending on size and location.
