  • Located about 30 miles south of Mahwah, the LaGuardia Airport (LGA) makes renting a car both easy and convenient. By catching a free shuttle at the arrivals curb, you can go to whichever agency you need to on airport grounds. You can also easily rent a car from John F. Kennedy International Airport (JFK), located about 40 miles south of Mahwah. You'll find car rental counters in arrivals and the vehicles at the AirTrain stop Federal Circle. If you fly into Newark Liberty International Airport (EWR), about 43 miles south of Mahwah, you can find the car rental agencies by taking the AirTrain to the P3 stop.
  • Most of Mahwah has a leafy suburban feel to it with a lot of calm and quiet residential streets. There is a built-up downtown area coursing through the middle of the city along NJ-17. Mahwah is renowned for having one of the better commutes into New York City. Peak rush hour traffic will add about 15 to 30 minutes to your commute, from 6:30 am to 10 am and from 3:30 pm to 7 pm.
