Hello, I would appreciate any recommendations of good neighborhoods to look at in Ocean County. We have been looking at the Toms River and Jackson areas online and would like to know from people who live there.

Where are you coming from? Florida
Why are you moving? Family
Where will you be working ? If NYC, what part of NYC? Not commuting to NYC

Will you buy or rent? Buy
What is your budget ? $200,000
What kind of place are you looking for ? Detached single family home

Will anyone (spouse, children, pets) be moving with you ? Spouse (ESE teacher) and dog
Do you need/want good public schools? Preferably for when we have kids and spouse's job

Briefly describe the kind of neighborhood you'd like to live
(examples: families with young children, young, mature, artsy, diverse, safe, close-knit, block parties, etc). Families with kids, young couples (30's-40's), safe, quiet; along those lines.

List three things that are important to you in order of importance.(examples: nightlife, outdoor activities, rural/urban, safety, downtown area, charming, new construction, proximity to XYZ, family oriented, easy parking, short commute, etc). 1. Safety, 2. Family oriented, 3. Things to do (outdoor and indoor).


Thanks for any and all recommendations.
