Perth Amboy is a historic waterfront city known as the City by the Bay. It was settled in 1683, served as a capital of the Province of New Jersey from 1686 to 1776, and borders the Arthur Kill. About 56,000 people live on 4.66 square miles of land. Census estimates put the median home at 1959, with 31 percent of homes built in 1939 or earlier.

Tree work in a residential yard

An old city, mostly rented

Perth Amboy’s housing is among the oldest in the county and most of it is rented: only 35 percent of homes are owner-occupied and 29 percent are single-family detached. On a rented property, the owner or managing agent decides on tree work and pays for it. Tenants who see a problem should report it in writing, with photos.

The city sits on a geological layer of clay several hundred feet thick, which once supported clay mining and terra cotta factories. Along the waterfront, the Wikipedia entry describes Victorian homes, some on hills overlooking the bay, and tree-lined streets. Ask the city about trees near the sidewalk before work starts.
