Bergen County, NJ

Anyone know much about Bergen County in New Jersey? Is it a good place to live relatively safe for kids and schools and how long is the commute into Manhattan?

Thanks.

Yep it's quite a nice county. Like most places it has its good and bad areas. Within commuter distance of NYC...in fact it's a popular area for NYC commuters.. Worst thing is that ALL the shops are closed on Sundays...it's the law...even just before Christmas. NJ's largest mall is located there.

Re: Bergen County

Forgot to say...can't help you with schools as I live in Morris County. I think most...if not all...the good areas are safe...but it will be very expensive to buy property and property taxes will be high.
