    Hello,

    My name is Valerie. I am French, married to a South African and I have been living in the UK for 17 years.

    My husband might get a job in Wall Street, New York City. We have 2 daughters (4 and 8) and we would rather live outside New York where there are good schools and a family-friendly community.

    I have been told that New Jersey is a good place for families. I don’t know where to start this research!? Could you maybe help?

    Thanks for your help.
    Valerie

    Yes indeed. New Jersey is the other side of Manhattan and a favourite destination for those working in NYC but willing to see less skyscrapers when back at home.

    We have a guide for expatriates in New York that you can look.

    New Jersey is great for families and the community is pretty close knit.
