[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm surprised no one has mentioned the housing stock and 'feel' of NYC suburbs compared with those around DC. NYC suburbs have significantly more character in my opinion. Most NYC suburbs were built as railroad towns in the 1800s. You will never come close to finding a spot as charming as Ridgewood or Morristown, NJ (for example) immediately outside of DC.[/quote] I agreRidgewood is basically the perfect american town. [/quote] How long does it take to get from a house there to midtown Manhattan?[/quote] I used to make the commute from Ramsey by NJTransit train (three stops further from Manhattan than Ridgewood) and it took 40 minutes door to door when I would catch the rush hour express train. The other great thing is that NJTransit runs late into the night (1am). After work, I'd frequently catch a concert and it was nice not having to worry about missing my train home. [/quote]
