It doesn't matter how far your location is from midtown on the map. On long island, If you live near train station, like Mineola, Garden City, to mid town is only 35 minutes ride, train departing every 5-10 minutes peak hour. Even Hicksville is only 40 minutes ride. VS living in Bayside (NYC) which you still don't get good middle school, you may need to take the bus then transfer to subway, Door to Door is going to take you one hour and up
07041, 符合你大部分要求，100万可以买全新duplex了。70-80万买个single family没问题。新泽西最好的学区之一。但是commute大概40到45分钟到midtown. door to door看具体位置，一般1个小时吧，做NJ transit火车，好在火车比地铁舒服，一般都有座位，位子一般算舒服。我都在上面睡一觉，可以去看看。

In my area primary school class size is always under 20 kids, my neighbor teaches NYC public schools she has 32 students...
It is very important not just school ranking but also number of students attending your class.
我家在fresh meadows, 我在下城上班，door to door, 早晚都是一个半小时左右，天气差的时候，那必须俩小时阿。
Millburn or Chatham NJ
NJ两个方向兼顾通勤和学区的好地方
Short hills, Scarsdale 就甭想了 预算不够
great neck，，学区好，火车25-35mins到曼哈顿，这个budget买个大的coop 2000尺，要买house必须上米
嗯 楼主30分钟的通勤时间是不现实的，要延长到一个小时Millburn学区好环境好 适合养娃
再远一点，Summit, Berkeley Heights, 房子会大很多
谢谢mm的指点！
那边学区都很差吧
别误导人，PS174不是多好的小学
谢谢mm，我把jersey city记下来了。
谢谢mm的详细信息！
PS 174不怎么样，虽然也有9分；去FH都是奔着PS196去的
我仔细想想，30分钟确实不现实，下火车／汽车后到公司还得至少15分钟左右。
哇，记下了，我赶紧去看看。谢谢mm！
这么说起来曼哈顿才是最不适合养孩子的地方。。
我同意她说的上FH普通校有可能比上好高中进疼校的几率大。
有的，一楼的apt很多带小院子，价格不比楼上贵，我看房的时候就看到过好几个，没选是因为一楼的光线不好，白天都得开灯。顶层的pennhouse很多也带自家小院，但这个就很贵很贵了。trump家肯定有院子的。：) 之前邓文迪离婚后卖她在曼哈顿的公寓，不也带院子吗？：D
07310学区不行啊。
...........................
这样啊，可能更适合无娃的。
谢谢，记下millburn了。现在bus是1个小时，40-45分钟感觉好不少。就是买卖房子好费钱啊。
