Living in Edison is all about getting the best of both worlds. Its proximity to the rail system, including a station less than 2 miles from the neighborhood, allows residents to enjoy a quiet suburban life while maintaining their jobs in Newark or New York City — all without a killer commute.

Driving through the neighborhood, you’ll notice wide bay windows on many homes, which are often sprawling ranchers with pitched roofs, multilevel Colonials or split-level homes with their boxy, asymmetrical exteriors made from a mixture of vinyl siding and brick. The neighborhood is full of fixer-uppers that are ready for you to put your imprint on, as well as newly renovated homes where all the hard work is already done.

Papaianni Park’s small lake provides a beautiful spot for locals to run, walk or fish, while the park’s tennis and basketball courts, softball fields and playground make it a popular destination for sports and play dates. Local dog owners love Edison-Metuchen Community Dog Park for its large fenced-in play areas, agility equipment and abundance of tennis balls.

Students in the area attend Lincoln Elementary School, which is part of the highly rated Edison Township Public School District. The school encourages community and parent involvement through events such as the Lincoln Parent’s Learning Festival and Parent Teacher Organization-sponsored events.

Major grocery stores, including Costco and ALDI, as well as leading retailers are located in Edison, ensuring that residents are always just a few minutes away from essentials. Lincoln Highway and U.S. Route 1, traveling the length of either side of the neighborhood, are lined with shopping and dining choices, from ramen to traditional American fare.
