Not Enough Hours in the Day for Fun! 4.5 rating By Anonymous ( May 28, 2018) When my job relocated me to West New Jersey, I didn't want to live in a big city like Trenton or Camden. Luck for me the realtor found a house for sale in Gloucester City that was perfect. My neighborhood is off the beaten path, and I am still close enough to work to not have to ...Read More be stuck in traffic all day.

The best areas in Gloucester City for me are all the attractions. Gloucester City hugs the Delaware River, so in the summer we can all go tubing, in the winter we cross the bridge into Pennsylvania and take in an Eagles game at Lincoln Financial Field. The shopping in western New Jersey is incredible because we have it all from high-end boutiques to malls, and if I don't find it, I can cross the bridge and shop in Philadelphia too.

Living in Gloucester City has me far from all the tourists of the Jersey Shore, yet close enough to all the best of the Garden State via the Parkway or Turnpike. Read Less
