We moved here kind of randomly before we were married because we found an apartment that checked all our boxes. And ended up staying and deciding to raise our family here. I was coming from DC, so it was a bit of an adjustment for me. But I love it here.

It's great for families, but it's ok for young people too. Before we had kids and our lives ended forever we'd go to cheesequake a lot. or Holmdel park. There's easy access to the Henry Hudson trail. There's lake lefferts if you're into fishing or kayaking. In the summer, you're about 20 mins from sandy hook, 20-25 mins from Asbury or long Branch for beaches. There's a surprising amount of good pizza here. It's nice to have both stop n shop and shop rite without having to go to the busier areas of rt 35 or rt 9. There's a livotis here too. We also have the train to the city, or to red bank. It's diverse. And Shanghai bun has the best soup dumps in the biz!

The downtown area is improving at a slower rate than we had hoped but it's getting better. Maloney's is great, but expensive. Alternate ending is a fun little brewery with pizza by Talulas (in Asbury). There's also A Salute on main st that looks to have a nice outdoor bar. But I've only ever eaten inside.

If you're looking to go out drinking in red bank and Asbury, Ubers home aren't cheap. Keyport is close. PNC arts center in Holmdel is close.
