Characteristics
Transportation
The car is usually the favored approach to navigate Berkeley Heights. The majority of properties for sale are a reasonably short car ride from the nearest highway, such as I-78, and it is very convenient to access a parking spot. In contrast, traveling by public transit is challenging in this township. Thankfully, homeowners can count on the Berkeley Heights, Murray Hill and Gillette with access to the Gladstone Branch. There are a few bus lines traversing the township. Berkeley Heights is not very amenable to cycling because bicycling is made arduous by the typically steep area, and the cycling infrastructure is not very comprehensive. Getting around as a pedestrian is also not very convenient for property owners in Berkeley Heights as very few daily errands can be run without the need to use a vehicle.
Services
Primary schools are convenient to reach as a pedestrian from most properties for sale in Berkeley Heights. However, there are only a limited number of high schools and consequently they can be a rather long distance away. Along with public schools, there are private elementary and high schools. When it comes to food, it is occasionally possible for house buyers in this township to access the nearest supermarket as pedestrians. There are also a few choices for those who value restaurants and cafes within a short distance.
Character
People who prefer a relaxed environment will enjoy Berkeley Heights. There are around 40 green spaces close by for residents to explore, like Watchung Reservation, making it easy to get to them. Most areas in this township are very quiet, as the streets tend to be very tranquil.
