I second you

The obvious basics....how are the schools, how's the crime, how's the diversity, what parts are the nice parts, etc. All replies welcome and advice is much appreciated.

Piscataway is a really nice place with lots of good homes. The area is also safe. South Plainfield is kind of okay. Just drive across Piscataway and South Plainfield and you would notice a difference

This is entirely dependent on which area of Piscataway. The poster was looking at somewhere in Arbor, which is near the Plainfield border and while not something I'd call dangerous, is not somewhere I'd consider nicer than South Plainfield.
