Nutley, NJ is a close suburb and a good choice for living outside of New York. It's very safe which is a huge contrast to Newark just 7 miles up the road. The town is attractive, especially Memorial Park. It is quite beautiful and serene. Homes hold their value here. There are not a lot of apartments to choose from as far as renting. But what is offered has reasonable prices especially compared to what you would pay in Manhattan. The citizens are fairly well educated, statistically speaking, with 32% holding college degrees and 10% with professional degrees. This district is largely Republican, so liberals may not want to come here. It's a close community with activities in terms of recreation and the arts. It's family oriented and conservative. If you like that atmosphere, this is a great choice.
