Are there any African Americans in Howell or Freehold?
My husband and I went to a couple of Open Houses in Freehold and Howell. Beautiful homes and reasonable priced. However, we did not see any African Americans. I do not want to purchase a home and feel uncomfortable later. One of the main reasons we are looking at this area is because of the school system.
My question is: Are there any African Americans in Howell or Freehold?

C'mon Captain NJ? Don't you get it? Its perfectly okay for blacks to feel uncomfortable living in a white neighborhood. But its certainly not okay for whites to feel uncomfortable living in a black neighborhood (such as, say, Camden).

There are some African Americans in both Howell and Freehold. Each town has around 4 or 5 % african americans. I know in howell there are pockets of african americans. Not really one neighborhood or anything like that. Freewood Acres section of Howell has some. Dont know much about freehold but i would venture to say that Freehold Borough has a higher percentage of African Americans than Freehold Township

He's an ass because he's questioning why someone would feel uncomfortable in an all white neighborhood?
