Hi! I just got a new job at Randolph and my husband works in Princeton. Please suggest a town to live from where we both can commute (under 40 mins).
We both are young, no kids.

Don't know about the under 40 minutes, but maybe Branchburg or Bedminster. Also, Bridgewater.

Thank you luckyshoes.
Which among the three is a more urban ?

Uh, none of the above

Maybe try Somerville? That's a small city right in that area, but I'm not sure what it's like to live there.

Somerville is far more urban and consequently more blue-collar than any of the 3 above that. But of those 3, Bridgewater is by far the most urban with a ton of major highways (287, 78, 22, 202, 206) cutting through it. It's also roughly equidistant from Princeton and Randolph (though the commute to Randolph is probably much easier than to Princeton).
