    Have lived here 13 years. Close to everything-beach,shopping, Parkway. Very nice neighborhoods, especially northern Tinton Falls near Colts Neck and Red Bank. Nice blend of age groups. Highly recommend living here.

    I strongly believe that growing up in Tinton Falls is one of the best things that can happen to you. This diverse, accepting town offers top of the line education for all of its students. From preschool to high school, I have only ever been surrounded by constant support of teachers and classmates. One thing that I would like to see changed, is the stigma around the town's high school, Monmouth Regional. Once I participated in the school's marching and concert band, I realized that once again, I would be surrounded by the most supporting and caring group of staff and students I could ever imagine.
    Tinton Falls it is a very boring town but, there are a lot of restaurants, coffee shops, and parks. There are a lot of retired people that live in Tinton Falls. it is a diverse, accepting town with pretty good education for every students. Though Monmouth regional is not a perfect high school it is actually an above average public high school.
