Hello - we're looking to move out to the general South Orange/Maplewood area from Jersey City. Trying to figure out where the "good" neighborhoods are.
What's important to us is:
- Low crime / safe neighborhood
- Decent public elementary school
- Relatively (<2 miles) close to NJ Transit train station
What are the areas around these neighborhoods that we should be targeting? And which are ones that we should definitely avoid?
