Many moved down from Northern NJ and NY and bought ridiculously ostentatious homes and cars to flaunt their newfound wealth. It has become very snobby.
Yes, it's pretty, gorgeous farmland, but has zero walkability. Yes you can buy a big house there, but it really has no neighborhoods and loaded with huge mansions. If you like your privacy and don't need to commute more than a few miles, it can be a good deal. Middletown, Aberdeen and Holmdel better choices if you want to feel like part of a community in Monmouth county. Rumson is similar.
We ended up moving back to Morris county (Harding) where we have access to Morristown as well much improved commuting to everywhere and are much happier.

First thing Colts Neck has a ton of "old money" or whatever you think old money is. So don't know what your talking about, lived around the area my whole life and know many people from colts neck. For the building or buying "ridiculously ostentatious homes" thats nothing new. Hate to break it you but thats what rich people do. You think they're are going to buy some old run down estate in colts neck and be happy. No, they are going to buy the new fancy house or fix the old mansion up to make it look new. It happens in every other wealthy NJ town.
Second thing, colts neck is only fine if you dont need to commute more than a few miles?? Really a few miles thats it. LOL. It takes a few miles just to get out of colts neck and onto a main road. You act like colts neck is in the middle of Kansas with nothing around it for miles and miles.
1. You need to get out more.
2. You play an excellent victim. I bet you have been perfecting it for years.
I always question people like him. The other students were mean to over things he couldn't control. I bet they were mean to him due to his personality and he chooses to blame the shoes and clothes.
We've lived in Colts Neck 10 years ago when my kids were toddlers. Truthfully, we love Colts Neck. Some relatives still live there (my aunt in fact had lived there for 46 years! until now, she's still there).
Even if I don't need anything else, I go there specifically to get apples. I started eating a lot of apples a few years ago when I quit smoking, and then I continued after I gained weight from quitting smoking...they usually have Washington State apples, but the apple selection is always very good, not bruised, and cheaper than the supermarket.
However, the exception is this time of year when I go to Eastmont Orchards (also in Colt's Neck) and pick fresh Jersey apples.
