Hi! I currently live in Bergen County and we are looking to buy a house in Morris County.... Rockaway/Denville area... I do not know much about this area and was wondering if there were nicer towns/schools to look for OR certain towns to stay away from?
TIA!!
Re: Looking to move to Morris County
Hi! I grew up in Denville for 26 years until moving with my husband. It is a WONDERFUL town to raise your children. There is a great sense of community, lots for children, and convenient to everything. I also associate very closely with Rockaway since most of my friends were from there. Denville and parts of Rockaway share a high school. I believe you can check the ratings of the school systems on some website but I have never heard anything negative about them. I am a teacher at Morris County School of Technology (a vocational high school) in Denville so I subbed in most of the schools prior to becoming a teacher. There is only one section in Denville, which is directly along the river, that floods often. The flooding that occurred in the downtown area was caused by the effects of a hurricane and are not the norm.
Feel free to send me any specific questions you might have. Good luck in the house hunting process!
