Reply to comment by Krisl0417 in Moving to NJ, thoughts on Hunterdon County, Raritan/Flemington/Clinton by Krisl0417
I lived in both Hunterdon County and Bucks County and have family in Princeton NJ.
Hunterdon County is not a nice place to raise kids. It used to in the early 2000s but not anymore. Flemington in particular is very run down nowadays and if you are considering public schooling, the school systems are subpar contrary to belief. Hunterdon Central High School is the WORST!
Bucks County is a lot nicer. Public schooling is good from my experience. Doylestown in particular is a beautiful town with a great central borough, LOTS to do for kids, the town is right next to the high school, Doylestown Township is nice and expansive, great big houses and all. It is a lot cheaper to live in PA as well.
Princeton, although I did not grow up there, is by far the best out of these areas. Beautiful town, sooo much to do and walk around, their prestigious university is right next to town and is a beautiful sight. The high school is close to town as well, and the Princeton Public School District is some of the best in the state.
I recommend you scope out all areas for yourself and see what would be the best fit for you and your children.

One big advantage of PA is lower property taxes.
