Review of Middletown, New Jersey


Former resident of Middletown
Star Rating - 2/5/2021
I lived in the Belford section In north Middletown for about a year and although it was a great area the cost of living and rent is too high. I rented a 2 br 2br condo about 900 square feet in the beacon place complex back in 2012 and at the time I payed 1600 not including utilities and cable. So I would only recommend moving here if you have a good job or are looking to buy a house and are willing to put a good amount down. Unless you have all that you wont be able to live comfortably on hourly or minimum wage jobs. I had two incomes and we still struggled with our bills every month. That's New Jersey for you.

I never said it was not a good area, I was not happy with the high cost of living and low wages. By the way you can thank the high taxes for the good police department. great schools and low crime rate.

I think Middletown NJ is a great place to live. Excellent schools, very low crime rate, safe town with an excellent police department. The only minus is very high taxes.
