Saddlebrook (Garfield, Lodi, Elmwood Park: how much, homes, schools)

[MomOfToo]

Can anyone tell me about this town? How are the schools? Is it expensive to live there? How much would a 3 bedroom Cape go for? What type of people live there? Thanks much.

We lived in Saddle Brook and loved it. We lived in a Cape, if you go on realtor.com you can look at prices, the range in price. Our taxes were about $5200 per year.

We had great neighbors, close to everything, plus the highways. My son went to Helen I Smith elementary and we liked it very much, they have a before and after school program which was great.

There really isn't anything I didn't like about the town or school. If we ever move back to NJ I would still go live there.

The taxes are below average for Bergen county in Saddle Brook, the area is pretty good it's compareable to Elmwood Park, and better than Garfield/Lodi.
