Is Princeton the 'Snobbiest' Town in New Jersey?

Princeton is often praised for its excellent school system, Ivy League university, and is regarded as one of the best places to live in New Jersey.

Princeton found itself at the top of yet another list, ut this one isn’t as glamorous. Let’s remember, though, it’s all in good fun.

According to roadsnacks.net, Princeton is the “snobbiest” town in New Jersey, beating out towns like Chatham, Mendham, Edgewater and Glen Ridge.

The website took a look at New Jersey towns with a population of 5,000 or more, and created a point system to rank median home price, median household income, percent of population with a college degree, and a few other pieces of criteria.

According to the site’s ranking of Princeton:

“Well, here’s a real shocker. This community is perhaps best known for Princeton University—but this is not your average college town. Residents here make more money per year than many people will pay for their homes, and speaking of homes, this place has it all, from beautiful, old brick buildings to one of a kind modern mansions. House snobs, rejoice!

“Don’t worry arts and culture snobs, there’s a place for you here, too. In fact, Princeton had the most art galleries and theaters per capita out of anywhere else in the state. (Check out the McCarter Theater for a break in the snobbery!)”

The full top 10 includes:

• Princeton
• Chatham
• Mendham
• Edgewater
• Glen Ridge
• Bernardsville
• Westfield
• Hoboken
• Summit
• Oradell
