Which areas of Asbury Park tend to be safer? How is the north part of town?
Asbury Park needs to get real...... they are selling houses in a so-so area lets face it Asbury Park has some issues to deal with. However the realitors act as if Asbury Park house prices are a steal. I can find many places in NJ to live a better quality of life for what they are trying to get in Asbury Park. You are not that far from afew years ago I think they have all forgotten.
Go drive around in Asbury at night and then decide. Do not leave this decision up to someone else's opinion. Take matters into your own hand and spend some time there.
In regard to the previous answer, Asbury Park can be a great town to live in, I don't want to ruffle anyone's feathers, but , in my honest opinion, it is just not that safe.
I live in Wanamassa, and walk down Sunset Avenue into Asbury Park daily, so I do have some experience. It depends on your definition of 'safe'.
There are neighborhoods, on the West Side that are very nice.
Asbury Park is not that safe, imho. Taxes are quite high too. Unless you really want to live there,
You might be better off buying in Wanamassa, Ocean Township, or Neptune.
Hi Tim,
Here's another website that could help answer your question regarding crime and safety in Asbury Park.

As far as the north part of Asbury Park, you can find some good deals in that area. Much better than you can on the east side of Main Street. The homes on many of the streets are older, very charming and many are well maintained. It all depends on what you are looking for. I find that many couples and buyers new to the area are attracted there due to the price points and proximity to the beach.
If you need any information on what is for sale in Asbury Park. I would be very happy to help you find what you are looking for. Please don't hesitate to give me a call.
