Your comment must have slipped through without me seeing it! Hope you are still a reader. There is a big difference between Montclair and Glen Ridge, and that is the taxes. In Glen Ridge you can justify the taxes due to its school system which most say. For comparable housing between the 2 towns, taxes are about 25-50% higher in Glen Ridge. Now don't get me wrong, I love Glen Ridge, but if you are looking for additional affordability, you will find your bottom line monthly payment typically less in Montclair. There are some great deals in Upper Montclair right now. I am an MSU alum and I still go there to workout. I drive thru UM all the time and look for my future home! Yes, Pizza, shopping, movies, Starbucks with WiFi is a huge plus in the downtown area. Gotta love it. Terry,

You definately get more for your dollar in Montclair. I certainly want a good area of Montclair and I was looking into everything above Valley Road toward upper Mountain, which would be Upper Montclair. I like the colonial homes and the convenience I get to downtown. Great pizza, shopping, movies, and Starbucks. What more do you need? Scott,
