South Jersey moving to South Florida- Wellington HELP!
We are currently staying in Delray, and driving around different areas to decide where to move to. I just didnt know it was going to happen so fast, and my husband is signing a lease on Monday. So I am kinda freaking out. We looked in a few different areas, and really feel for Wellington, as it seemed to be very family oriented, and new. If you live in or around Wellington, perhaps you can ease my mind, and tell me how much I am going to love it. We chose Villiage Walk, it is close to the Florida turnpike Southeast Corner of Wellington. I dont think the community we chose is the most family oriented but in general Wellington seems to be. I would appreciate any help you can give me, we are moving next month.
Thanks!

Re: South Jersey moving to South Florida- Wellington HELP!
Hey ellizen,
I'm also a South Jersey (Williamstown) transplanted in South Florida...Delray now, actually. My husband's co-worker lives in Wellington and while it's a very nice quiet town....it may be too quiet with regards to not having enough activities for older children.
For me...I have made many wonderful mommy friends in Broward County and the drive to Ft. Lauderdale from Delray is far.....but the drive to Ft. Lauderdale from Wellington but would be too far for me.
We really love Delray Beach/Boca. Good luck!

I'm in Coral Springs and it was rated the best place in the state to live. I really like it.

Im in Wellington.. It is extremely family oriented. There are tons of things that the community puts on for kids of all ages. Plus everything you need is within a 3 mile radius.
If you have any questions please let me know.

Thank you everyone, we are excited, just happened so fast. We are moving Dec 1st. We do love what we have seen so far in Wellington. It was also in money magazine with Coral Springs, and that is why we looked at Wellington. I hope to meet moms, I had just met some great moms in NJ that I was really close with who all had babies the same age as me. It will be exciting and different, and hopefully we made the right decision.
Liz- I cant add you as a friend or PM you. But maybe you can send me an email to Designerellen810@gmail.com since I dont check the PM on the bump often.
I'm in Wellington! We moved here 2 years ago from MI.
There are so many nice parks. As a previous poster said - the mall is clean & a great area to meet people. The community constantly has on going activities for families.
We absolutely LOVE it here!
Good luck with the move.
I live just east of Wellington. It really is a great area for families. All the schools are A rated. And pretty much all the neighbor hoods are good. I really like Village Walk. I love the little town hall and gas station! Good luck with you move!
I used to live in the Wellington area (in Woods Walk, just east of 441) and I loved it! Village Walk is a good area. It is definitely a good family-friendly area and we had so many wonderful friends down there. Good luck!
