Need to move to Princeton Area.. (Princeton Junction: apartments, rental, job transfer)

[SonorityGenius]

Hey guys,
(I posted this Q in Northern section hopefully someone here will be of more help!)

I got a job transfer to Princeton Univ Medical Ctr.. I dont have a CLUE about what kind of area that is, and or how to even get there HAHA

I dont drive, rely on nj transit, I am looking to move somewhere VERY close there and or take a bus (605?) that goes right up there..

Thanks everyone

it is right off of route 1 and it will be a minute away from the Princeton Medical Center when it opens up in 2011. Currently, the medical center is 10 minutes away by car in downtown Princeton. I can give you all of the info you need, as I am a resident, so feel free to PM me. I did lots of research before moving to this area. Best of luck in your search.

The 605 does go to the Medical Center.

You might also look at the Mews at Princeton Junction. Quick Dinky ride into Princeton!

Hey Jerseyj, thanks I checked out the Mews.. yikes 1 BR rent is expensive!

Are there any places nearby the hospital itself?

What is your rental budget?
Princeton is an expensive town and there are very few apartments there.

Your best bet will probably be the apartments in Plainsboro- Hunters Glen, Ravens Crest, Pheasant Hollow, Quail Ridge and Deer Creek. These guys start at about 735/mth and up.
The 600 bus services Plainsboro and you can transfer to the 605.

The new Medical Center is moving to it's new facility in late 2011 on Rte 1 in Plainsboro.

You can also look at apartments in Lawrence and East Windsor, your commute will be a bit longer.
