Residential blocks between Route 30 and the Atlantic City Expressway
More understated than tourist destinations like Ducktown and Uptown Atlantic City, Monroe Park stretches quiet residential blocks between Route 30 and the Atlantic City Expressway. “Monroe Park is one of those neighborhoods that people know if they’ve grown up or been raised there,” says Todd Gordon, a broker sales associate with the Hartman Home Team and Berkshire Hathaway Fox and Roach real estate with 23 years of experience in Atlantic City. “It’s further off the beach and the boardwalk. You get a backyard, more of a year-round community and that home feel.” Abutting major Atlantic City destinations from the convention center to Tanger Outlets shopping mall, Monroe Park transforms from quiet coastal suburbs into the heart of America’s Playground in the span of a few blocks.

Community parks, Pop Lloyd Stadium developments
On a long, slim field above the Atlantic City-Brigantine Connector tunnels, Horace Bryant Park is a landscaped, bench-dotted green space to relax along the Penrose Canal. Several blocks away, Horace J. Bryant Jr. Playground provides a court for pick-up basketball games. After being closed for several years, Pop Lloyd Stadium began redevelopment in April of 2024 and is slated to become a multi-field athletic complex for Atlantic City youth sports leagues. The Atlantic City Boardwalk and surrounding beaches are just blocks from Monroe Park, free and open to the public year-round for bikers, walkers, anglers and sunbathers heading toward the waves in both the on- and off-seasons.
Brighton Park is a nice place to have a picnic in AC.

Early 20th century rowhouses and midcentury suburbs
Set on larger lots furthest from the Atlantic Ocean, classic suburban vernacular homes like split-levels, bi-levels and ranch-style homes line up along quiet sidewalks and sell for $170,000 to $380,000. “People move to Monroe Park looking for a house with a backyard, fenced-in yards. More home and more value instead of other neighborhoods where you’re closer to the beach but in a rowhouse,” Gordon says. “There’s still some rowhouses that are more like city-living, concrete and less grass. Those are all over Atlantic City.” Rowhouses, townhouses, twin homes and similarly slim detached single-family homes built in the early 1900s sell for $70,000 to $220,000 depending on renovation levels and rental potential. Narrow sidewalks connect Monroe Park’s residential blocks to the Tanger Outlets commercial district and more distant oceanside casinos. Monroe Park has a CAP Index crime score of 6 out of 10, earning higher scores for violent crime. The national average is 4.

Atlantic City Convention Center, Atlantic City Rescue Mission
The Atlantic Convention Center hosts expos and special events throughout the year, drawing in upward of 500,000 visitors annually between out-of-towners and local attendees. Held within nearly a million square feet of space broken up into wide-open event halls, smaller meeting rooms and atriums hung with colorful flying fish sculptures, events range from real estate career expos to the lively Atlantic City Beer & Music Festival. Just across Bacharach Boulevard, Atlantic City Rescue Mission has been providing food, clothing, housing and career counseling to those in need for over 60 years.

Shopping and dining at the Tanger Outlets
Sprawling across the blocks surrounding the end of the Atlantic City Expressway, the Tanger Outlets, formerly called The Walk, are the city’s commercial center and make up the southern edge of Monroe Park. Shoppers walk along broad sidewalks edged with blue wave detailing and through tree-planted courtyards to retailers from Gap and Old Navy to the Nike Factory and new Bass Pro Shops. Between stores, foodies can grab a quick boba tea from Bambu Desserts & Drinks or sit down at restaurants like Applebee’s and Wingcraft Kitchen & Beer Bar. Iconic Atlantic City fixtures like Dock’s Oyster House and White House Subs are blocks away in nearby Ducktown. Beyond grabbing a handful of essentials at convenience stores like West Side Grocery & Deli, weekly grocery shopping means a trip to the Save A Lot at Renaissance Plaza. Houses of worship of a handful of denominations hold services in Spanish and English throughout Monroe Park.

Academics and athletics at Atlantic City Public Schools
Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. School Complex and New York Avenue School each serve prekindergarten through eighth grade and earn a C and C-minus from Niche respectively. The King Complex sits within Monroe Park and regularly brings the community together around the school’s basketball courts, hosting the annual cops-versus-kids game each December and after-school three-point showcases featuring celebrities like Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver A.J. Brown put on by the city’s recreation department. Atlantic City High School serves ninth through twelfth grades and earns a B-minus.

NJ Transit, Jitney buses
The Atlantic City Expressway ends to the south of Monroe Park, typically bringing in more travelers and commuters than it sends out of the city. NJ Transit bus stops line North Indiana and Ohio avenues, taking riders toward Uptown Atlantic City. Jitney buses pass through the Tanger Outlets and AC Convention Center area toward citywide entertainment and casino hubs all day and all night. The last stop on the Atlantic City Rail Line, the Atlantic City Rail Terminal sends riders on an hour and 40-minute train ride into Philadelphia.

Flood zones, seasonal traffic
Almost all of Atlantic City, including Monroe Park, falls into higher risk flood plains during unusually heavy rain and coastal storms. With the warmer months comes a wave of tourists and events, bringing in more traffic through the Atlantic City Expressway and around the Tanger Outlets, as well as the more clearly defined tourism hubs along the boardwalk.
