I love living in Green Brook! I was able to attend Watchung Hills Regional High School which was a wonderful experience. It was full of caring teachers. Coming from a private school previously, I was concerned about this but I found the transition very easy. Aside from education, it's a really safe town. I never have any issues here. I haven't had much experience with the police in town, however the interactions I have had have been pleasant. Washington Rock State Park is a beautiful place to visit, especially on a clear, sunny day. Green Brook runs along Rt. 22 which is connected to major highways such as 287 and 78. Overall, it is a quiet town and a nice place to live.
Green Brook ranges from extremely expensive to affordable, depending on proximity to Route 22, and location in relation to the mountains. It is mostly safe from serious crime, and has a good school system. There are a few nice parks, but more open space would be nice.
Traffic around Green Brook can be pretty heavy and noisy, especially around Route 22.
Green Brook is very difficult to navigate by foot or wheelchair, due to a distinct lack of sidewalks particularly near the Route 22 section and up toward Warren. This means either walking along dangerous and very busy roadways, or necessitates a vehicle for even short distances.
There is very little to do at night, since most businesses are closed around 9pm or 10pm.

Green Brook is a great little town. There is just one elementary school, and one middle school. High schoolers attend Watchung Hill Regional High School in Warren. I like the small town feel, and everyone knows everyone. Most people are friendly. We have tree lightings, Santa comes on the fire truck every year, movie nights at the elementary school in the summer, bag bingo, and family bingo. It's a great little town.
We really don't have a downtown area, so it would be great if a small downtown area with shops, and restaurants were added without clogging the town.
