Current Resident: Hopewell is a fantastic town with community vibes and lots of opportunities. I have found that all residents of Hopewell are welcoming to the town and enjoy their experience as well. I attend the public high school in Hopewell, and it has such a wide variety of clubs, sports, and other extracurricular activities to keep kids involved and provide education and opportunities that change our lives....

Current Resident: Vineland is a fantastic town. Depending on where you live in the town, your experience may differ. If you're in the downtown area, there's more of an urban feel and crime can be an issue. However, if you live in East Vineland, it's a whole different story. It's a beautiful, walkable suburb with well-kept homes, farms, parks, and small shopping centers. Crime is very low in this area, which makes it a great place to live. You can find a variety of homes here, from reasonably priced ranchers to moderately priced new homes. The community is very diverse and friendly, with many professionals living in the area. There are also plenty of amenities nearby, such as restaurants, coffee shops, parks, the Cumberland Mall, Health clubs, theaters, Inspira Hospital, great schools and a new golf course. It has a 30 minute commute by car to the Jersey shore. Overall, Vineland is definitely worth checking out!... Read 138 reviews

Current Resident: I relocated with my son to Millville, NJ and am elated with the area. My son and I enjoy the parks and local scenario. The food in the area is phenomenal! We relocated from north Jersey and have been enjoying the peacefulness of our neighborhood along with the kindness and generosity of our neighbors. While COVID-19 has prevented us from further enjoying what Millville has to offer, we have thoroughly enjoyed the offerings of this lovely town!... Read 57 reviews

Current Resident: Although given a bad reputation for things done in the past like race riots at the schools in the ‘90s, teen pregnancies, and a high level if violence, the kids there are different. Each child has something really special about them, whether it be their humor, their talents, or their morals, these kids are so diverse and different than the more privileged kids in the surrounding neighborhoods. If only people stopped giving them a bad reputation to, almost, have to live up to the kids wouldn’t feel looked at like animals.... Read 74 reviews

Current Resident: Fairfield is very family oriented. Great school system and recreation programs. Mostly single family homes that are going up in price so hard for average family to live here. Not the most diverse town. People that grow up in Fairfield seem to stay in the town as adults and choose to raise their families here too.... Read 3 reviews

Current Resident: Upper Deerfield has been my hometown for 18 years. It is a mostly rural area with several developments as well. We have a few strip shopping plazas with grocery stores, fast food options, pizza, diners, Walmart, Tractor Supply, hair salons, etc. And only 15 minutes away is a larger shopping mall, movie theater, and plenty of shopping options. Although there is very little nightlife here, we have walking trails, fishing, our own indoor roller skating rink and community soccer, baseball and midget football for kids. This is a great town for families looking for some space without being too far from cities, like Philadelphia, and larger towns.... Read 5 reviews
