Character

Zip Code 08560 offers a slower-paced environment and will appeal to home buyers who enjoy spending time outdoors. Getting to public green spaces, like Woolsey Park and Ted Stiles Preserve at Baldpate Mountain, is very easy from the majority of locations in the postal code, since there are about 30 of them nearby for residents to check out and many houses for sale have a park very close by. This area is also quiet, as there tend to be low levels of noise from traffic - although that is not the case near I-95 or one of the 3 airports (Goat Hill,Weidel/Pvt/,Trenton Mercer).
