Looking for information on the area, schools, where not to live, what you think of the area.
Thank you
Thank you
ok, I finally heard back from the guys in my old shop. Only one had kids in a local district, most of the guys either haven't had kids in school in years or live 20+ miles from the base. From what they said, it all depends on how much you want to pay for a house. They think the base uses Pemberton schools, and the one guy who had kids in that district (his youngest graduated 3 yrs ago) doesn't like the district. He said look at Hanover (North or East, I can't remember) and Columbia, but it all depends on what you want to pay for the house. He suggested looking up Burlington County for a list of towns and school ratings. The zip code for the base is either 08614 or 08641, my ADD/dyslexia is really kicking in today lol. If you're coming from the south, you're in for some serious sticker shock in NJ. Once you look at the different districts online, PM me with the information and my guy will be glad to give any information he can. He also said to ask what shop you'll be going to. They know a lot of folks on the active duty side and he might could answer some questions about your new shop.
