I agree Westminster and Elmora are pretty nice. If you have to live in Elizabeth I would probably try those townhouses in the waterfront. But I'm not too sure.
I know you said you can't base Elizabeth off of some pictures. But here's some pictures I would like for you to see of Elizabeth. Although I don't have any of Westminster. Oh well this is for you to see how Elizabeth looks like.
PS sorry if I have Linden or Westfield they're not sections of Elizabeth.
Actually, I wouldn't go anywhere near those townhouses. None of them are selling, so Elizabeth decided to make them Section 8 housing. Many of the residents who used to live in the Pioneer Homes projects they knocked down now occupy those townhouses. Not exactly your ideal neighbors.
The Westminster section is likely a bit safer than Elmora, but my preference would be mainly based on much nicer housing stock, the larger/better-maintained lots, and the relative lack of congestion in Westminster. The overall ambiance is Westminster is just much nicer than in Elmora.
I would say Elmora Hills is the safest area in Elizabeth. Pretty much isolated away from any real rough neighborhoods. Westminster has beautiful housing but is very close to that Oakwood Plaza complex aka Pierce Manor.
i lived in elizabeth almost all my life.i saw it go from a nice town to a real crap hole.you cant drive through town at night with out worring you might get car jacked or shot.and there a lot of gangs ,my daughter is a teacher in elizabeth and she moved out just so she does not have to send her kids there,and thats just grammer school.at the high school the need a ton of cops there when school gets out.if you want to live some were thats close to ny trains look around rahway nj its an up and comming town.

Reason: spelling
They've been saying that for YEARS. Ain't gonna happen. You have the same problem as other northern towns. Nice areas surrounded by **** areas.
