Good Morning, Looking to move to a nice Jewish/Muslim area in Central New Jersey. Would love to find a nice rental home, so if you know any websites or landlord phone numbers would be helpful.

Livingston is known to be very Jewish, and my Muslim former employer lives there.
Best bet might be to do a search on mosques or synagogues.
I know that East Brunswick has a pretty large Jewish population. My family lives in Somerset, and while driving to some shops in the area we used to pass a pretty large synagogue on Ryders lane.
North Brunswick would get best of both and have lot of rental apartments available. East Brunswick have sizeable Jewish population. South Brunswick have sizeable Muslim population (have seen a mosque on Rt 1) and one getting built in West Windsor (Old Trenton Road). North Brusnwick is between both the towns.. so that would be the town :-) which would have access to both.
Otherwise, Livingston, Fair lawn, Lakewood are the Jewish stronghold towns. Muslim: Probably South Brunswick, West Windsor, Monroe, Edison, Paterson (not saying move there, but have great food options)
Well, they are more alike than different as opposed to Christians in their theology. Similar dress codes (for the most observant ones), similar dietary laws. Yes, both claim descent from Abraham through different sons.
Highland Park has a big Jewish community, as do the Brunswick’s. Edison does as well, although as time goes on, the town is trending more Chinese and Indian. Not aware of Muslim communities in Central Jersey, but I do know that some of the restaurants on Oak Tree Road in Iselin near the Edison border are Halal and not Hindu, since they serve beef. That is also in the Indian area, but Indians can be Muslim as well. Or Pakistani.
During the Moorish period in Spain (roughly 700-1000 A.D.), the Jews living in that country enjoyed far more freedom, and ultimately less oppression, than Jews living in the Catholic nations in the rest of Europe. The Jewish and Muslim citizens of Spain enjoyed a rich period of mutual cultural respect during that era.
