    "Long but pleasant commute. Ferry transport to NYC is expensive, but clean, safe, and comfortable. Driving is a bit of a hassle due to being so far east but also not terrible. Living in Rumson is worth the commute."

    "I have lived in Rumson (The Bubble) my whole life. It's called the bubble for a reason, it's very safe and clean, only thing is that it is NOT diverse in any way and some kids are brats because of how used to the affluence they are."
