A Different Side of Jersey! 4.5 rating By Anonymous ( May 16, 2018) When I was being transferred to New Jersey, I thought I would have to live in Trenton close to my work. Luckily I discovered a quiet little town in the Garden State called Princeton Meadows, and I have never been happier. My house is in a quiet neighborhood where all of my neighb ...Read More ors are always looking out for one another.

Living in Princeton Meadows is like being in another world because I'm far away from the congestion of Newark and Jersey City, tucked away in a nice rural part of the state. If I need to go anywhere, I can jump on 195 and be at the Jersey Shore, or head on the NJ Turnpike to Connecticut, Maryland, or New York.

The best areas in Princeton Meadows for me are the shopping and dining choices. This area has everything fine high-end shopping to premium discount malls right off the interstate. We have plenty of fine dining here and in Trenton, as well as over the bridge in Philadelphia. Read Less
