I have been living in Upper Montclair for over 15 years. There is basically nothing negative to say about this place. Neighbors have become dear friends, everyone is friendly and it is very safe. Super family-friendly with a diverse range of restaurants and shops. Lots of parks and open space. It's a wonderful community with smart and compassionate people. I love it here!
I think they preach about their diversity a lot when, in truth, the majority of POC families live on the south side of town and the white families live on the north. This difference can be felt and seen throughout the town. In spite of that flaw, Montclair still manages to be a good place to raise your children, and the schools not only provide good education but almost guarantee acceptance into good colleges.
It has a little bit of everything- urban areas with restaurants, stores and cafes; lots of greenery, parks, and hiking trails; friendly people and neighbors; proximity to the city; safety! Love living here!
