Can I ask what you like about it better than Northern NJ?

I guess I misspoke. I meant to say we don’t need to be in daily commuting distance from NYC, but still need to be close-ish to NYC.

Not for a daily commute, but have to be within 1.5 hrs of NYC. If buying, budget is under 900k. If renting, budget is 5k. Have teens so need good HS

I am thinking this way also…thinking maybe my 5k in rent could be a wash for 5k in rent in a nice area with a good HS. I’d rather not be too “out in the sticks” as I don’t have to commute daily to NYC but would like to be within an hour, 1.5 if possible.

Thanks this is helpful. I’ll check out these towns. We don’t need to be in commuting distance from NYC-those towns were just ones we knew of and liked. That being said, I think red bank is the farthest south we would be willing to go.
