It really depends on your commute and what high school you want your kids to go to. I moved to Raritan 10 years ago. I absolutely love the FRSD school district for my kids. I was on the PTO board for five years. Hunterdon has very good schools but not without problems. The way the schools work is they have local elementary schools, for example FRSD has 5 schools (K-4) that feed in to RFIS (5-6) that go to JPCase (7-8) that go into Hunterdon Central which also has sending districts from surrounding school districts. I believe Clinton goes to Hunterdon North. There is also Voorhees. It's a beautiful area. Hunterdon County was rated the safest place to raise a child and most of their schools rank high in national rankings. There is no "bad" section of Hunterdon with a high crime rate. If you need access to 78 Clinton and surrounding areas is better. For 202 and 287 Raritan is better. A lot of addresses say Flemington because of zip code but aren't in Flemington proper. Just do research on schools and commute. If you need a friend when you get here feel free to message me.

Thanks very much! Just realizing there are two Raritans?? The actual town and then the township?? Seems like this is common throughout the state…a little confusing!

There are two of many, many town names throughout New Jersey. They can be on opposite ends of the state. It’s very confusing.
