My wife got a job in warren NJ. I would be traveling to WTC for my work. What are best places to live considering both commuting. I would like to make her commute time as less as possible so she can take care of my 1 and 4 year kids. We need good schools pre and public and commute will be convenient to both of us. Appreciate Your advice. Thanks. We may plan to buy a house in future and rent it now. I was told Edison is one option. Let me know any other best places considering we are from India.
Scotch Plains. It's close to Warren. There is a NJ Transit train station nearby (Fanwood) that runs into Penn Station Newark. You can then transfer to the PATH train to WTC.
If you fill out the Sticky: Questions for Future and Potential Residents, people may be able to provide better advice.
Edison to Warren is not a good commute. Someone probably recommended Edison because of the Indian population there.
However, if your primary concerns are commute (especially your wife's) and schools, any of the towns along the NJ Transit Gladstone Line are good options.
Thanks. Yah. You people are advising me in right direction. I will explore it. Any town(scotch plains or west field) with qmple parking spots? Which one is closer to warren?

I can go up to 2000 if i don't have option. I need 2 bed and bath. Any towns you suggest?
The earlier suggestion of Scotch Plains fits most of your criteria, but I think you'd be in an apartment (which isn't bad for a year as a base as you get to know the area before looking to buy). It's probably about 30 minutes to Warren and you'd have train access for your commute.
