Pennington is a great small town located in central jersey. Although there is not much to do right in town, both Philadelphia and New York are close by! There are many local restaurants for a night out and malls and movie theaters within a 15 minute drive!
Living here for most of my life, this town is the best place to live in. It is very close to major cities such as New York and Philly. It also is a good central area in terms of colleges nearby to apply to, has varying seasons, and a very friendly community. Crime rates are very low here, and basically everyone is very friendly and care about each other. Housing prices vary depending on the location to Pennington. In my neighborhood, people are always out and about on a jog or just a nice stroll. The town is pet friendly and is small and comfortable for someone not liking urban areas. Pennington would be described as a suburban town with many local businesses .
The town is nice and safe, but there is little to do in the town itself. However, there is a lot to do in the towns surrounding it. Some people in this town appear to be stuck-up which kind of takes away from the warmth of a small, quaint town. The people at towns such as Princeton and West Windsor are friendlier in all honesty. If you're looking for diversity, it is getting there but the school districts themselves are not very diverse.
