If you drop the need for a single family home then Hoboken or Jersey City would work.

>but the downtown area appears very congested with car traffic

I mean, this is going to be everywhere in Jersey within commuting distance of fidi. It sounds like you want a city but without the city and that's a hard ask.

Thanks, good perspective. Ultimately, we’d be happy with a town that had a good cafe and a few places to eat if the other factors were good, ie walking distance etc. Commute only 2 days, so okay if not ideal.

Got a dog and kid, and if we wanted the apartment life would prob go to BK.

Eh, Brooklyn on under 750k would probably leave you with an annoying commute. Actually, a quick look in my neighborhood in JC shows some SFHs under 750k, so you probably could swing it.

Alright, thanks for the tip. Won’t dismiss it so quickly.
