Reply To: Alternative Communities in New Jersey?

Hey all,

Thanks very much for all of your input. I think that Passaic/Clifton or Highland Park are probably the most in line for what I’m looking for. However, as someone noted in the comments, HP has very heavy tuition. Does anyone know the deal with tuition costs for a BY/Yeshiva education in Passaic/Clifton?

The drawback to Passaic and Clifton is also that housing is tight, kind of like Brooklyn. Aberdeen seems nice and rural, but I don’t see schools that I would I would be comfortable with. It seems unfortunate, that the regular working type yeshiva crowd couldn’t make a place for themselves somewhere more rural in NJ.
