Moving to NJ, need advice...

[kjt2004]

Moving to NJ within the next 6 months. Need advice on where to move. I need to move no more than 30 mins from UMDNJ(Newark) preferably 15 mins. Looking for 1-2 bed condo.

Any advice on safe/nice places to live or places to stay away from will be appreciated.

Thanks

Get on all New Jersey web sites,request the free maps. I would see if it's possible to subscribe to the Star-Ledger newspaper and look through the apt/condo section. I would definitely stay out of Newark,you might try Englewood,New Jersey--it's about 18 miles from Newark but nicer.

West of Newark is nice: Milburn, Summit. South of Newark try Cranford, Kenilworth, Clark, Westfield. You can also find some nice new condos in the Bayonne and Jersey City area if you are looking for a closer to NYC city lifestyle. Go on NJ.com and look in the classifieds for rentals and homes to buy. Good luck. You could also look North of Newark in the Belleville, Nutley, Montclair areas.
