  • Adam D.
    "I'm part of the community in Wayne as just a college student, but there is a lot to love about the area. Much of Wayne's development runs through a valley, and atop the ridge that forms three sides of the valley. This means that, despite the Jersey aesthetics, it's a rather pretty place to live, and most of the single family homeowners around here treasure their property and maintain it as such."
  • Michael A.
    "Holiday parades and 4th of July Celebrations. Farmer’s market on certain weekends. Car shows and Wayne Day!"

    "Hard to say since I’m not a parent, other than the schools are great, there are tons of kids here and it’s a very family oriented place with lots of activities. "
  • Danawig7
    "I live 15 minutes from my job compared to the 45+ minutes it used to take me when I lived in Jersey City. I work in Fairfield.I don’t work in the city anymore, but there are buses right outside the complex that go to the city so it is a very convenient place to live for city workers as well. After 20 years in New York and Jersey City, when was the exact change I needed. I love it here. I’ll never go back to living in a city after this."
  • Tarek S.
    "This neighborhood is great place to live in although it’s expensive but if you can afford it it’s worth it"
