wow! maybe DH and I will move to NJ

Re: Safest Places To Live In U.S.

My SIL lives in Montclair and she always talks about how nice it is there.

Re: Safest Places To Live In U.S.

I don't get this list. Why are there so many NJ towns? #12 makes no sense to me. I thought North Bergen had a lot of crime ? ??

Re: Safest Places To Live In U.S.

LI doesn't make ANY of the lists because there is no 1 town here with more than 50K people (I think)

Re: Safest Places To Live In U.S.

In CNN Money's 2005 list of the "Best Places to Live," the small hamlet of Islip was named the safest place to live in the US.

ETA: Guess it's not the size, we just slipped from last year.
