    "It has tremendous public transportation. I've lived here more than 11 years. - I used to live in New York, San Francisco, Washington, Boston. Working in New York City (and more recently at home), I've NOT HAD TO BUY A CAR! The train station, bus stops, the supermarket, grocery store, barber shops, churches, a fishmonger, pizzerias, Chinese restaurants, bars - they're all walking distance from anywhere in Roselle and Roselle Park! And to New York City, there are not only only 3 stops on the train - and 40 minutes on one of the two bus routes that make their way through Roselle and Roselle Park, but to other nearby towns and cities, obviously it's even less time on the train or buses. (There are six bus routes through the town, taking you everywhere in Union County and beyond). And finally, if you do have a car, we're just off the Garden State Parkway. Add an enormous park with indoor ice skating arena, baseball diamonds, cricket grounds, a separate walled rose garden, a grove of trees planted in honor of George Washington almost 100 years ago - and playgroun"
