I lived the 1st 18 years of my life in Edison, then I joined the military. I came back about 10 years later, then moved away. Your video made me want to visit again soon. Nicely done!

[@newjerseylivinggroup]

Thanks for the comment @ack1961! Planning an Edison eats episode soon, so stay tuned.

We're thinking of moving to NJ and debating between Edison/Metuchen, South Brunswick or West Windsor Township. This video was quite informative. Are there parks, play grounds and things like that for families with young kids.

[@newjerseylivinggroup]

Hi @yooom321, yes all 4 locations have local parks, great schools, and are very family oriented. I am scheduled to video in Princeton next week which is neighboring to West Windsor. That will give you a general feel for that area, albeit the West Windsor market is not as expensive as Princeton. Feel free to email me if you have any specific questions or even better schedule a call for a chat about these areas.

Depends what you value and what you want to trade off… I am in Edison and 5 minutes from Metuchen where I ride my bicycle on the weekends.. Metuchen backyards are smaller than I like and most houses is too close to other neighbors which become a privacy concern. Unless you find bigger lot that is not too close to the neighbors, I would not move to Metuchen… I can’t speak of the other towns you mention…

[@yooom321]

Ended up buying in metcuhen. There's quite a few .25 acre lots in Metuchen. More than I initially thought. I like being able to walk to the train and being able to be in the town already. I also felt Metuchen was a bit more diverse and city like than north Edison, which was super superbia. It's a preference thing at this point. Both places were great. Edison definitely gives you more house and nicer house for your money. Metuchen is a bit over priced.

[@persaud101]

@@yooom321 I was looking at Livingston, Warren, Highland, Randolph and Millburn/short hills… Problem I found with Metuchen that there were asking Livingston and Warren county money for houses with smaller lots and there schools people are saying is good but they don’t match Edison or other districts school for what your paying. Also I found some businesses there to be not welcoming or friendly… The best place I found was Harrison NJ; however the schools were not up to par.. They had the best park, 25-30 minute commute to NYC, access to developments in Kearny and recent new target that was added and everything was 5 minutes away by car and walkable. Lots size were smaller but the house market there has exploded, I have two houses there and one in Edison… If I get a can 10sqft house in Metuchen with some privacy and the price is right 950k-1mill and it’s new construction or recent construction 5-10 years old, I would consider buying it… Before the market hype house prices in Metuchen was actually pretty decent. I past on 12k sqft lot with a old house for 518k which in retrospect I could bought at 450k -480 and break the down the house rebuild it it for 350k-400k and would probably be worth 1.2-1.4 million… If I am going spend 1.2 million - 1.5 million, then Livingston, Warren, Millburn, Monroe township, and others are better considerations (the interiors and room of metuchen homes were alot smaller)… Warren blew me away I passed 1.2 acre older house for 718k at the time, beautiful scenic backyard like a resort…

[@subba18]

If schools are not a requirement, what is the best place to rent/own a home for commute to NYU from NJ?

[@newjerseylivinggroup]

@subba18 Thanks for posting the question! And it’s a very good one! This depends on a few factors; what type of home, your budget, and preference of urban vs suburban area. Let’s connect via email or a quick Zoom call to dive a little deeper when you have time.

Looking someplace near Jersey City.. Not within Jersey, but nearby... On the Berger County Rail Line... Might be Nutley or Clifton - that's the names I keep hearing?!

[@newjerseylivinggroup]

Hi @Ishan, I would be happy to provide insights on those areas. Either email me at [e-mail] or click the Calendly link to schedule a call to discuss the best options based on your criteria.

[@tondalondon5087]

I was looking to rent in Edison in Westgate or Edison Manor. I did notice the area is heavily populated with the Indian culture. Every townhome I have seen is owned by an Indian. Although I am well qualified, I feel they only want to rent to their own. So now I’m in the market to purchase.

[@newjerseylivinggroup]

Hi @Tonda, I would be happy to assist you in your search. Please email me so that we can schedule a time to connect. [e-mail]

So he starts the video out in Woodbridge NJ

[@newjerseylivinggroup]

Yes @Don, as I noted in the intro I started in Iselin at Metro Park due to it’s proximity to Edison.

[@DJaySplitSecond]

That’s the West side of Edison, very heavy population

[@newjerseylivinggroup]

Thanks for the comment @DJaySlitSecond! Edison's population density is notably higher outside of the 08820 zip code.

[@AbDoushAwki]

valuable information thanks , keep going

[@newjerseylivinggroup]

Thanks for the comment @Abdou! There is certainly more to come! Keep an eye open for the Metuchen episode.

Land rates in Edison

[@newjerseylivinggroup]

Thanks for the comment @Renuraja! Are you looking for a land purchase for a single family home?

[@larryk731]

Edison is CENTRAL NJ not northern.

[@newjerseylivinggroup]

Thanks for dropping the comment @larryk731. Categorizing Edison as Central NJ is up for debate. A drive or train ride to NYC is less than an hour. Along with Woodbridge, Edison is one of the few Middlesex county locations that can legitimately be considered as northern NJ. Somerville (Somerset County), Old Bridge, South Brunswick, and other towns in that area are most certainly Central. But as for Edison, I respectfully disagree.

[@nlbthatsme]

Edison is def central jersey. No debate.

[@KimberlyMarie282]

I am thinking about moving to Jersey, but buying a home, nope, homes are too expensive and not new, but that's upstate living 😳😳🤣🤣🤣

[@newjerseylivinggroup]

@Marie thanks for the comment. I agree that housing is not cheap in NJ! Renting is always an option, however, each rent payment is money that you will never see again. There are affordable homeownership options, such as condos, that serve as an investment as well as your place of residence. Over time, that investment increases in value and you always have the option to use it as a rental when you choose to move on. Mortgage payments, unlike rent payments, are like depositing money into a bank account where you eventually will withdraw with a return. Please reach out if you decide to move to NJ, I would be happy to share insights on both the rental and purchase markets.

[@KimberlyMarie282]

@@newjerseylivinggroup Thanks for the response will reach out if I decide to relocate to the area..Are you licensed in other nearby states

[@newjerseylivinggroup]

@@KimberlyMarie282 I am only licensed in NJ, however, I have colleagues in several other states. If you need assistance in upstate NY or any other area just let me know.

[@alreynolds7152]

You need a 50 yr mortgage to purchase a home now a days ! Goodbye middle class !

[@newjerseylivinggroup]

Thanks for the comment @alreynolds7152! This is certainly a real issue with how the price of housing is far outpacing household incomes. Very valid point!

[@gauravsharma233]

Indian Hindu are vegeterian.

[@newjerseylivinggroup]

@gaurav Yes, there are several vegetarian dining options in Edison and the surrounding towns. There is more variety of Indian cuisine in this area than probably any other area in the country.

[@Mack-ed1ig]

Not all Indian Hidus are vegetarian
