I believe everyone in this area feels safe. I've only heard of one crime and the word was out and everyone was on the lookout. Plus we feel extra safe because we have a policeman that lives in the neighborhood. Don't see police much; maybe when someone's alarm system goes off.

Tinton Falls is a wonderful town to grow up in. Everyone knows everyone and they are always there for you no matter what..... good or bad. The only thing I would change is, I would build a post office because we unfortunately don't have one!

The homes in my neighbor are old and not too close together like the new homes are.

In general this area is very much like a big family. As a community we've been through a lot, including many deaths within a year of key community member that has just made us all grow closer together. I would love to live here forever because we are also a perfect distance from the beach where our town itself doesn't have beach traffic but were close enough for it not to be a hassle to get to the beach.
