"I used to live in Bound Brook and plan on relocating back. The south end of the town near Main Street is not not recommended, but the north side of town, especially in Piedmont is fabulous. Beautiful, well-kept homes and wonderful people."

"Bound Brook in general is a great community in which to raise children. There are many activities: T-ball, Little League, Pop Warner Football, girls softball, basketball, soccer. Many recreational facilities and teams that cost little or nothing. The main park, Codrington Park, has pools for children and older children and adults, along with swim lessons and summer special activites. The town is a walking town, easily within walking distance to the train station. Bound Brook is a little more than 1 square mile where everyone knows everyone and is a place to live with friendly neighbors in every area."
