East Howell has beach proximity, a highly rated school system
Sixty miles from New York City is the city of Howell, New Jersey, and its neighborhood of East Howell has subdivisions, farmland and rolling greenery. Residents of the area favor East Howell for its balance of seclusion, community and access to regional destinations. “Eastern Howell is a great neighborhood because it has a good school system, it's suburban but it has a rural feel to it, and if people want a little space, it has proximity to the beach and transportation,” says Christopher Morales, a Realtor with Allegro Agency. Morales has been working in the area for four years. “People who want to be close to the shore but away from the hubbub pick this place.” East Howell is bisected by Interstate 195, which leads to the Atlantic coast and into Pennsylvania.
