Hi all. If any of you have recommendations for towns to live in based on the info below, I'd really appreciate it!

Where are you coming from? Massachusetts
Why are you moving? Work
Where will you be working? West Windsor

Will you buy or rent? Rent (at least at first)
What is your budget? $3200
What kind of place are you looking for? Single family home, hopefully with privacy/tranquility/seclusion; as big of a lot size as possible given our budget.

Will anyone (spouse, children, pets) be moving with you? Spouse
Do you need/want good public schools? No

Important things: I'd rather not commute more than 30 minutes to West Windsor. Quiet; as rural as we can get while keeping my drive to work short. Would love to have the woods and some hiking trails within reasonable access.

Thank you!

Live in West Windsor, there are trails to hike, canoeing in the warmer months. It's a beautiful, quiet town, but close to Princeton which has inexpensive theater & the Princeton Art Museum on campus which is free & wonderful.

Why commute at all?

Don't think you know West Windsor if all you've done is driven through it on Rt. One !!

Take time to explore, you'll be pleased.

You want rural West Windsor won't fit the bill. You'll have to go west of Princeton; Hopewell, Montgomery, East Amwell, Sourland mountain area.
