Englishtown, NJ (Old Bridge: school districts, living in, zip codes)

[Sweetiepie10]

Hi Everyone,
Can anyone tell me about Englishtown, living there but benefiting from Manalapan school districts.
Is there a "good" or not so "good" part of Englishtown. Does any one know the demographics in this town?
Any help would be appreciated!
Also do people look down on you bc you live in Englishtown, but benefit from the Manalapan schools?

Thank you so much!

You probably want to stay away from being anywhere within earshot of Raceway Park.

Speed trap town. Watch out for the cops sitting on Main St. if you drive thru there 8PM or later. I'm sure a lot of those displaced South Shore McMansion dwellers will frown upon those living in the underbelly, but then again there's enough of that element to go around. Not really illegals right in that area, but definitely white trash. Benefit from the Manalapan schools? Depending on what your definition of it is. The schools are average, not close to top notch or anything so it's not like it's a district worth scraping the barrel for or anything. Then again I'm a firm believer that you shouldn't scrape the barrel for any school district. It's a big fish small pond thing.

Very true, even if Raceway Park isn't in Englishtown. It's certainly close enough.

Raceway Park is really in Old Bridge, which is full of zip codes from neighboring towns. This part of Old Bridge uses the Englishtown zip code.
