The home is beautiful I did notice searching online the area surrounding it isn't that good. going in one direction because it is East Orange the other direction is fine it is West Orange. The home is in the middle of West and East Orange. The home is in a nice area but maybe a mile or half a mile to the right it starts to become a bad area. Anyone know this area? Highland Avenue train station is the train stop.

Not a great area. Depends upon how much you pay. Schools matter? Do you have a car for shopping?
I got off the train on Orange walked to main st it was a very busy street did not look or feel dangerous (it was almost 3pm) I would probably take the train to Orange and then take the 44 bus. Taking the train to Highland Ave would also involve waiting for the bus but that area looks pretty dead nothing going on. There is a building with lofts right across the street so I do not know about commuter traffic during the am hours.
I just checked around the neighborhood seems like there are many homes that are very well kept. They are clean and well maintained. The bad area seems to be out of the city of orange area it starts in East Orange which is blocks away. Would anyone still consider this?
Personally I don't see the point of buying a ~$300k house in Orange and still have to take the bus to the train. If you're going to live in Orange you ought to get something out of it; an easy commute or a very cheap house.

Couldnt agree more with that statement. Buying a 300k house there is crazy.
