Fair Haven Real Estate Market

In the mid-19th century, Fair Haven served as a steamboat port where day trippers from New York City, 25 miles across the bay, would disembark for a day of leisure while the steamboats headed back with a hold full of oysters. The steamboats no longer run, but Fair Haven has become a much sought after enclave due to its proximity to both New York City and the easily accessible beaches of northern New Jersey.

One of the town's most exciting events is the annual Fair Haven Fireman's Fair, put on by the Fair Haven Fire Company every year for the past 100 plus years. The purpose of a fireman's fair is to raise funds for the local fire company and the Fair Haven version is the largest in the state.

Every year, thousands of visitors flock to the Fair Haven Fireman's Fair to hear the likes of Bruce Springsteen and Bon Jovi, while enjoying food, rides, and the chance to win thousands of dollars in the raffle.
