Hello,

We are moving to the Princeton area and would love to have some suggestions for some towns nearby that are cute, green, and safe. Think Hensel and Gretel... Thank you!

I don't know, if any town is "Hansel and Gretel," but it sounds like you would be happy in Cranbury.

You didn't mention what your budget is, renting, or buying?

I don't get the analogy either, but if a cute, green (treed) village is the idea, perhaps places like Lawrenceville, Pennington, Lambertville, maybe Hopewell fit the bill.

If by "green" you mean "full of tree-hugging folks who walk to work, eat nothing but organic food and live frugally", I'm not sure that you're going to find a town that fits that mold overall. Could you give a bit more of an idea of what you're looking for specifically?

really going to need to know your budget and what type of home you are looking for? lot of land? I agree that cranbury would probably suit you, but depends on your budget.
