Hibben Rd
"Quaint Street in a Beautiful Town"
Hibben Road is a short street linking thoroughfares of Mercer and Stockton. Situated off of the 206 and very close to Princeton University, this street is a nice one to know when making your way to campus. Otherwise, is it punctuated with modest homes and because it is so close to the other more populated streets, this is a nice place to live. I like the ambiance of Princeton and in comparison with other cities in Jersey, I would say it’s one of the prettiest. It maintains a certain New England feel that is somehow lost throughout the rest of the Garden State. Hibben Road with nearby Marquand Park and the beautiful campus of Princeton is a wonderful street to know when visiting this quaint town.
Allison Rd
"Close to What you Need"
Allison Road is a mainly residential street. Although it doesn’t have much to offer in terms of dining or entertainment, it is a nice street to live on as the homes are well-kept, the street is very clean and scenic, and the people here are friendly. An important part of finding a good location is outlining what you like to do and finding a good place to nest that is within a fair distance of places that host the activities you’re interested in. Allison Road would be a good street to live on if one likes solitude, but doesn’t want to have to drive 45 minutes to go to the grocery store. Close to the University and to Stockton Street and Hwy 206, Allison Road would be a perfect place to live.
Winfield Rd
"A Wonderful Winfield"
Winfield Road is a part of the larger Winfield a winding residential street in Princeton. This street is gorgeous and is surrounded by trees. The homes here are expensive and expansive, as can be said for many homes in this neighborhood. Princeton, being a college town, does have a much younger population, but the more established residents tend to live further off from campus, where the homes have more square footage and there is less traffic. This would be a wonderful town for those affiliated and not affiliated with the university to reside, as it is scenic and filled with friendly people. Though this street is lacking in terms of entertainment, the nearby thoroughfares have much more to offer. All in all, this is a great street to live on.
Great Rd
"An Oasis for those who still want Proximity"
North Road is a pretty residential street surrounded by trees. The homes in this neighborhood are modest, and though this street isn't as exciting as the streets throughout the city, you'll be happy to find a nice ambiance here. On major perk of North Road is vicinity. Mountain Lake Park is nearby, and with walking paths and ponds, this scenic escpae is a wonderful feature of this neighborhood. Also, on nearby Pretty Brook Road, there is a tennis club. North Road's connectivity make it a nice oasis from the more hectic areas of town.
Carter Rd
"Besides the Trees..."
Rosedale Road is a wonderful and dynamic street in Princeton. The YMCA is on this street which is a great place to get a cheap and comprehensive gym membership. On this street, you'll also find the Credit Union of New Jersey and the Johnson Park Day School. The Chauncey Conference Center is also popular with tennis courts and private meeting rooms. All in all, a great street.
Cuyler Rd
"Suburban yet Current"
Unlike its neighbors, this street is very nice to look at and its buildings all share a very unique architectural design. The trees on this street are magnificent. Princeton is one of the prettiest cities in New Jersey, and with its suburban yet current feel, this would be the perfect street for virtually anyone.
Dempsey Ave
"Small Town Feel"
You shouldn't expect much from this street. It’s mainly residential and really has nothing to offer in the way of great food. If you’re looking for somewhere to live, however, this place could be considered on account of its accessibility with more interesting streets nearby. Princeton is a quiet town centered around the university, so this would be a great place to settle for another looking for something a little more small town.
Richard Ct
"Not As Cool As Nearby Street"
Similar to other streets in this area, this is mainly residential. Typically, the restaurants and shopping runs on the Avenues, while the streets are reserved for housing and leisure. I enjoyed this street in wonderful Princeton and thought it was pretty, though I’m not sure it would be all that desirable for a long term living situation. The Westminster Choir College is nearby, and there, you will be able to find more interesting fare.
Walnut Ln
"Beautiful Music Here"
Walnut Lane surrounds the Westminter Choir College of Rider University. This a very busy street with restaurants, shopping, and various other offerings. With its collegiate feel and its friendly people, this is a great place to live, work, or shop. The street and the campus of the university houses great under schools as well as the fantastic school of music. All in all, this is a nice street to visit for a concert.
Spring St
"Heartbeat of Princeton"
Spring Street is a main commercial street near Princeton University. This is the heartbeat of this neighborhood, filled with eclectic cafe, bustling businesses, and delightful restaurants and shops. Chelsea Crimpers is a popular hair salon on the street, with fair prices and great stylists. Chuck's Spring Street Cafe is one of the most popular restaurants in town, with classic American food and Ivy League atmosphere. Farrington's Music is a great music store if you're looking for the latest Beyonce album or a vintage Billie Holiday record on vinyl. Every inch of this street is filled with a unique store and a wonderful vibe, and would be a great place to spend some money on a Saturday Afternoon.
34th Ave
"On 37th Street"
Similar to other streets in the neighborhood, 37th Street is a nice street in a quaint neighborhood. With small service-oriented businesses, friendly people, and a few tress, this street could be one to consider on a move to Queens. I like the idea of living here, if and only if it is still easy to get to midtown Manhattan, which from this section of Queens isn’t terribly inconvenient, but isn’t as easy as it is on other streets. Also, having a car on this street might be something worth considering.
Pine St
"Something for your Consideration"
Pine Street is a great street in Princeton, with a little more going on than the other streets nearby, though Nassau Street has more to offer. Like many others in this neighborhood, Pine Street is kind of quiet. There are only a few small businesses and nothing much in the way of entertainment. It’s kind of a simple neighborhood, but it’s nice, and the people there seemed friendly. I think this street is worth taking a look at when considering a move to Princeton.
Hamilton Ave
"Great Street for the Yuppies of the World"
Hamilton Avenue is a great street, with a few great offerings including an Aerosoles shoe store. Not surprising as Princeton is somewhat world renown for its yuppie population. Hamilton Avenue is filled with trees and there's a lot going on throughout the neighborhood, making this a wonderful place to live if you're thinking of moving to the New Jersey Area.
Chestnut St
"Trees and Wonderful Scenery"
Chestnut Street has a lot f housing options. The street is well connected with lots nearby. I liked to the overall atmosphere of this neighborhood and would like to return for a visit. There always seemed to be something happening, making the neighborhood wonderful. Princeton is a calm oasis in the somewhat drab Jersey, and the beautiful trees on this street make it worth your while if you're considering moving here.
Mershon Dr
"Friendly Street in a Nice Neighborhood"
Meshon Drive is in a nice neighborhood in Princeton. Though the main fare is on North Harrison Street and Nassau Street, you’ll still be able to find a good amount of nice housing here. It was a fairly quiet and the street that was very much lived on. The people here are friendly and the neighborhood is convenient. This would be a great street to live on if you're thinking of moving to Princeton.
Hornor Ln
"Great for Residents"
Hornor Lane is primarily a residential street, with some small businesses and shops on nearby streets. This neighborhood was gorgeous, with trees surrounding the modest homes. There wasn’t as much noise here as on the other streets. In terms of food or fun, I don’t think you’ll be in luck here, but in terms of some nice housing options, you might be in luck. I liked this street, and think that the neighborhood has a lot to offer its residents as well being the perfect street for a light jog.
Fisher Ave
"Kind Of Quiet"
Fisher Avenue, like many others in this neighborhood, kind of quiet. There are only a few small businesses on nearby streets and nothing much in the way of entertainment. Princeton is a really beautiful town and progressive, as it is filled with cultural events, museums, seminars, and the like, mainly all attached to University. All in all, I think this street should be considered on a move to Princeton.
Maple St
"A Nice Street in an Even Better Town"
Maple Street is a mainly residential street in beautiful Princeton, New Jersey. There's really not a whole lot going on here, as there are busier streets throughout the neighborhood. I think you'll find that there are some beautiful homes and housing options throughout this neighborhood, and it is well located with in the city. All in all, this is a nice street in an ever better town.
Linden Ln
"A Great Street"
This street is beautiful. It’s really well-located and there are several things to do nearby. It is nearby the Westminster Choir College of Rider University, and the busy Hamilton Avenue. There’s also all kinds of restaurants nearby the block.The street is very calm and mainly residential and transportation is limited to cars, bikes, and feet. I like the feel of Princeton and how low-key yet mature it is, and I feel that there is really something for everyone here.
Carnegie Dr
"A Picturesque Street in a Nice Town"
Carnegie Drive is a mainly residential street located in Princeton, New Jersey. This street is filled with beautiful old trees and small average homes. I like Princeton because of the old architecture, college-town feel, and the wonderful old homes here. On Carnegie Drive, one major advantage is the country feel of the street, as most of New Jersey isn't as picturesque as Princeton is. Living here is somewhat expensive in comparison to other cities in the Garden State, but well worth it, as education here is prime. Transportation in Princeton is somewhat limited, though the theme seems to be going green, with many riding bicycles to and from work and school.
Clay St
"A Mainly Residential Street"
Clay Street in beautiful Princeton, New Jersey is a mainly residential street in a fantastic neighborhood. Witherspoon Street is the main thoroughfare in this delightful neighborhood, with stores, shopping, and current fare. Princeton is one of more eye catching cities in New Jersey with its trees, running trails, and wonderful people. Nearby Clay Street is the Community Park which is a nice retreat in this great neighborhood. All in all, a great street.
Watt Ave
"Beautiful Views of the Park"
Beyond bordering Pelham Bay Park, Watt Avenue doesn't really have much to offer. There are no restaurants on this street, but there were plenty of friendly people. The streets nearby have more offerings in terms of day to day needs, but this street is well accessible and would be a nice place to live.
Einstein Loop South
"E = MC2"
Einstein Loop is a nice residential street located in the Bronx, New York. It houses several brick high rise buildings, likely housing projects or low income homes. The neighborhood itself was lively with the Bay Plaza shopping center and Pelham Bay Park nearby, this street is a nice thoroughfare to the other more exciting streets. The metro is extremely far away from this street, so it might be hard to navigate without a car or knowledge of the intricate NYC bus system.
Erskine Pl
"Clean and Serene"
Erskine Place was somewhat surprising to me with its activity and offerings. There were small stores with great clothes, many service businesses, and professional offices on this street, not to mention being adjacent to Pelham Bay Park. This neighborhood is great and the street with its view of the park was amongst liveliest... not mention one of the cleanest!
Stillwell Ave
"Bustling with Activity"
Stillwell Avenue is a bustling street in the Bronx, New York. This street has a bit of something for everyone. First, car repair. This street alone houses 5+ mechanics shops. Second, food. With cheap greasy food available at pretty much every step, your diner cravings will not go unquenched on Stillwell Avenue. Third, wonderful people. This neighborhood is filled with a comradery and sense of neighborhood pride unmatched by nearby streets. Stillwell Avenue merges into the Pelham Parkway North, and there you can find the MTA 5 train.
Tiemann Ave
"An Exciting Thoroughfare"
This is a great street in the Bronx! It has just about everything on it that one would need ranging from daycares to law offices to nightclubs to convenience stores. Other areas of the Bronx seem kind of cold to outsiders, but this section is great for both its residents and its visitors. Transportation on this street is no problem with the nearest subway located at Gun Hill Road only 2 blocks away. This is a great street and one to remember when thinking about the Bronx.
Summit Ave
"Near The River"
Summit Avenue on the Harlem River in the Bronx, New York is a nice street that is well connected and a nice place to live in this busy borough. This neighborhood is filled with various medical offices and small service oriented buildings as well as a few parks. The housing on this street is somewhat undesirable however and the streets nearby tend to be a bit more upkept. Dining can be done on the nearby streets as Summit Avenue is mainly residential. Transportation to and from this street is fairly easy with the Major DEegan Expressway nearby, as well as several buses and the 4, B, & D trains on nearby 161st next to the Yankee Stadium. This is a nice street and could be one considered if you're thinking of moving to the Bronx.
Clinton St
"Clinton Street is Alright"
This is a thoroughfare is not as jam packed with things to do and places to go. You should try WD 50 for some interesting takes on traditional American cuisine or the Clinton Street Baking company for something really special (they have great cookies). I really enjoy this part of the city and think that anyone would. It's well accessible and the housing options are plentiful. All in all, a good place to live, work, eat, or shop!
Reeds Mill Ln
"I've Seen Better Streets"
Reeds Mill Lane run adjacent to the noisy New England Trailway, making this a less than serene street. I like this area of the Bronx, but this mainly residential street doesn't have much to offer in the way of food and fun. If you're looking for something a bit more dynamic, you might search for something a little closer to the midtown area, as this street is a little far out and not as convenient as other streets nearby. All in all, there are better streets in the neighborhood and in the Bronx.
Noell Ave
"Good but noisy"
Noell Avenue is filled with various small service oriented businesses and shops and places to eat. I think that this is a nice area to live, though the heavy traffic from the New England Trailway makes this a noisy street. If you're looking to move to the Bronx, this area could be considered, but it is by no means the most attractive or dynamic street in the neighborhood.
Harper Ave
"A Simple Street"
This street doesn't really have much going on beyond residential options. I think that this would be a nice and quiet place to settle down if you're looking for something outside of Manhattan. I like this section of the Bronx, and think that this street is well connected, given the amount going on on nearby streets. If you're thinking of moving to the Bronx, this is a nice neighborhood and one to consider moving to! I think that this area is filled with life and that the housing options are a bit nicer here than they are on other streets.
Strang Ave
"A Mainly Residential Street"
Strang Avenue is a mainly residential street in the Bronx, with little to offer in the way of recreation. Though I was taken by this section of the Bronx, this street was slightly underwhelming in terms of everything, being that it wasn't as conveniently located as other streets nearby in terms of public transportation and businesses. The housing offerings on this street were somewhat shoddy and I don't think renting or owning here would be all that advantageous for someone new to New York City.
Schieffelin Pl
"Scenic and Somewhat Serene"
Scheifflin Place with the nearby Seton Falls Park is a beautiful street in the Bronx, New York. I though that it was a nice shift from the harsher areas of this borough. This street doesn't have much to offer in the way of... anything. There are some nice housing options in various types of buildings, but as a commuter to the midtown area, this neighborhood isn't worth the climb down to midtown everyday.
East 239th St
"A Street With A Few Conveniences"
East 239th Street is in a nice section of the Bronx, New York, an up and coming borough in the vibrant metropolis. This street is mainly residential with some housing options that are fairly run down and not much to look at. The street itself is convenient with a metro station for the 2 and 5 trains located at Pugsley Road at 238th Street. In terms of businesses and shopping, you won’t find much here beyond a few service oriented shops and a few small convenience stores. All in all, this is an average street in an average section of the Bronx, and with nothing much to do or see, you might not be too interested in either living on or visiting East 238th Street.
East 233rd St
"East 233rd Street"
East 233rd Street isn’t much of anything. The nearby park is nice, but not really worth the trip. You won’t find much in the way of anything on this South Bronx street. Though it wasn’t really a sight for sore eyes, this street was calm and nicely populated, and I didn’t feel that I could make a home here, though there isn’t much in the way of food and exciting things to do. You’ll have to go to the next street for that.
Matthews Ave
"On Matthews Avenune"
Seton Avenue isn’t much of anything. The nearby park is nice, but not really worth the trip. You won’t find much in the way of anything on this South Bronx street.

Bronx Park East
"On Bronx Park East"
This area is a bit run down and is definitely not a place I would recommend for living options.The nearby streets capture most of what’s going on in this neighborhood, as this street is mainly residential and is not all that exciting.

Hoffman St
"On Hoffman Street"
Another street with convenience designed for the residents Hoffman Street is quite simply home to many people. There is nothing remarkable here, and as landmarks and sights tend to dwindle as you climb further uptown, there seems to be an overall lack of things to do in terms of a touristy nature. For the residents, however, I thought that the street must be acclaimed for its convenience and overall nice vibe. All in all, a nice street for those that live there.
Bathgate Ave
"On Bathgate Avenue"
A variety of businesses line this street, though there isn’t much in the way of “a lot of fun.” This is what I refer to as a residentially convenient street, with various goods and services being offered to the people who live in the neighborhood, but to an outsider, it’s not worth the trek. These things can be found in your neighborhood. Fortunately, everything is compact. In New York City, you’re wise to know that food runs on the avenues, not on the streets, so for lunch, you should try a nearby street.
East 188th St
