Langhorn, PA: Closest area with best schools and large racial diversity (Princeton: low crime, taxes) - New Jersey (NJ) - City-Data Forum

I am moving to the US from India. My husbands office will be in Langhorn, PA and I was hoping to get some information about the best school district close to the area. Our US partners suggested Princeton, NJ. I want an area with preferably a small community, large racial diversity, commercial, good schools and low crime

I know it sounds too good to be true but I was hoping that there was something that closely matches this about 30 min commute from Langhorne.

If your hubby is working in PA; I would look around in PA; the school systems in that are are top notch. The taxes in NJ are much higher. That said; I am not sure of the diversity in the area.

Wiley; what about Yardley? I have heard that is very diverse; but I am not familiar with it.

Princeton and Yardly are not relly diverse - they are rich towns.

South Brunswick school system is very and and has a huge Asian population.

The Langhorne school system is very diverse but the schools are not as good.

Our office was located in Yardley which was not very diverse. South Brunswick sounds good, I will research that. I don't need an asian diversity as such, just somewhere, I can settle in easy.
Taxes are not a huge issue, but I will check out more of the PA areas. Our partner lives in PA but suggests NJ for us , whcih is why we opted for it.
