New york Metro Area

"Being in the Northeast part of New Jersey provides plenty of opportunities. Explore New York City's iconic locations such as Times Square, Central Park, Rockefeller Center, The American Museum of Natural History, and many more. Culture and talent can be found in every borough of NYC with unique dining and attractions. Don’t forget to catch a Broadway show to kick off a night in the city. New Jersey offers heaps of things to see and do. Go on one of Palisades Interstate Park hiking trails and experience New Jersey's natural settings. MetLife Stadium holds thrilling sporting events and has held some of the largest concerts for major artists worldwide. New Jersey's suburbs give us a different experience from New York City by having lively main streets and pleasant neighborhoods like Bloomfield Avenue in Montclair, East Ridgewood Avenue in Ridgewood, Leonia's Broad Avenue, and Jersey City's Waterfront district. I love being able to experience all of these and more, all within an hour-or-less drive."

"One of my favorite things about living in northern New Jersey is that each town and region has its own identity. You have the benefits of living in a small borough with a nice downtown but still live less than an hour away from one of the world’s greatest cities. There is tremendous cultural diversity in NJ too, which means some of the best food you can find anywhere. One of my favorite places to eat is at the Japanese grocery chain Mitsuwa Marketplace’s food court in Edgewater, NJ."
