Main objective is to find a family oriented area, low crime, good schools but close enough to a city for commuting to work. Since I am not from the east coast....I truly don't know and that is why I am being open to either area. My husband grew up in Jersey but it was in Lacey/Lanoka Harbor, which I assume isn't big in the tech field.
back to my original post. Bucks/Montgomery in pa and Burlington in NJ

Oops....sorry BPP1999, my husband informed me that you were responding to someone else. This is my first day/time posting on a forum..... I will get the hang of it eventually. )

My husband is a Sr. Software Eng. and we are planning on renting for the first 6 months before purchasing (if this info helps).
There are relatively few "bad" suburban areas. It would be easier to narrow down your choices if you can tell us where your husband will be working and how much (and what kind of) home rental you're looking for...as well as your preferred mortgage range.
