[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Oh, you do not want any part of wildwood NJ. It is bad. Way worse than OC MD. Nothing quaint about it. Agree with pp, look at OC NJ or Avalon. Much nicer. [/quote]

When people say 'Wildwood' most dont realize  it isn't just 1 town...its 4... The Wildwoods.

There is Wildwood.....older, crowded, the Boardwalk runs along the beach there, rents are lower so lots of college age kids, bars also in town and some clubs,  and this is also where a lot of year round residents live,  more lower income...not the first choice. They are trying to improve this area.

There is North Wildwood...nicer. quieter, family friendly, has predominantly been blue collar Irish Catholic, they have a big Irish festival in the fall,  not much to do but the Boardwalk starts here. The beach is small and crowded and the water very rough.

West Wildwood is a small bonnet of residences.

Wildwood Crest has a huge beach that is raked everyday so it is clean. It's the nicest of the 4. Quiet, family oriented, some delis, pizzarias, restaurants, and over on Sunset lake you can rent waverunners, sail boats, etc. This is the best of the 4.....lots of retro motels but also new construction condos and rentals. Beach is lovely and huge...can walk out into the water and also swim.....tide pools for little ones. I'm partial to the Crest. At one point WWC tried to separate itself from the others and renamed itself.  You're also just a short ride from the Wildwood 2 1/2 mile Boardwalk and Cape May's Victorian homes and B & Bs, great restaurants and nice shops, a small boardwalk and shops along their beach as well.
