I was wondering if anyone could give me some advise on purchasing a home in Livingston, NJ. We've been looking for properties there for a month. Prices are relatively reasonable compared with those in Millburn/Shorthills, and the school system is supposed to be one of the best in the state. But not sure which section of Livingston is more desirable? Any thoughts and advise would be appreciated.

My advice to you, would be to go to the Livingston Mall and spend a few hours.

That should greatly help your decision.

Kathy - Livingston schools are indeed excellent, and taxes are not as high as other top-tier towns. I am not sure which areas are better than others, but I can say that the Livingston Mall is no reflection on what type of people live there, since most of the people I know from that town shop at the Short Hills Mall. I say do some more research and check it out.

Great advise. Thanks folks for the imput. Really appreciate it.

Actually, we nearly bid on a house on Orchard Lane, Livingston, but someone else got interested and presented an offer first, so we backed out. BTW, this is such a great website, with lots of insights into the NJ property market and nice and friendly people like you : )

I haven't visited the Mall yet, but have heard some negative comments about it. To us, the Mall isn't that important. We care more about the school there. Is it just because of the downtown area in Livingston that is holding people off? How about the community and the neighbourhood?

Kathy, I don't think you can simply ignore what goes on at the Livingston mall.

That's where your kids will hang out when they're teenagers.

A local mall and places such as Burger King can reveal much about a town.

Livingston sucks.. get real. The nice towns are west of 287, but if you NEED to be in that essex/union county border, then go with Scummit or Cheatham. Maybe even Madison. I know people who live in Maplehood, and Millburned and think it is great. Then I know people who used to live there...the ones who were robbed at gun point in low lit area.

Livingston mall is ghetto... it should be torn down and reverted to a natural area.

I know there is a wide section of people working in lower Mahattan financial district residing in Livingston. They prefer to take the bus or Highway 280 instead of the train. So it can't be that bad...

I lived in East Hanover for 8 years and graduated high school there. It's a nice town. The better part of EH is the part that borders Florham Park. Lots can be pretty big, up to about a half acre, it depends. Taxes are very reasonable since Kraft/Nabisco is there.

As for Livingston. I happen to live in a $3M home about 3 miles from the Livingston Mall, surrounded by about 20 more of the same, occupied by bankers, lawyers, doctors etc. So I guess the Livingston Mall is really a good representation of the population of Livingston. My point is, take these comments about the mall with a large grain of salt. Many NJ Transit buses run to and from the mall all day.

Is BroadLawn section in Livingston is a good area? Also the neighbourhood of Mt.Pleaseant Elemantary School is good location to buy a home ?

I have been following a site now for almost 2 years and I have found it to be both reliable and profitable. They post daily and their stock trades have been beating
the indexes easily.

Take a look at Wallstreetwinnersonline.com
