Franklin Township (Somerset County) (crime, home, high school)

[JerseyG]

What comes to mind when you hear "Franklin Township"?

I'm asking b/c I'm told it's all sunshine and roses, but I know it's not. I live in Franklin. Just had our 4th murder in less than a year. Yeah, what an accomplishment.

There's a good side and a bad side to the town (literally). If you talk about the bad side, you're a racist..instead of a realist who chooses to walk through life with one's head out of the sand.

So I'm just curious what the perception is...

Thanks in advance.

When I learned there were armed police in the high school, I realized just how bad the situation had gotten.

Many years ago, we almost bought a home there. We asked about the crime and were told that things would change.

They changed all right...for the worst.

You are a realist.

It's a tale of two cities.
