  • 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."

    "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."
