spring13- what about your husband? is he a real OOTer, is he ok there? it also depends where you daven.... I've been told that Passaic is in between oot and in town and I think its true. for some pple that is absolutely perfect while for others its b'dieved. I know more then one person who lives there by default-as in best option they can think of near NY but if op would start a community they would consider it.....

He is too, I'm just more strident about it. My shul is one of the most chilled out ones in town, and I've got a good group of friends there (and others scattered around town) to help keep it real.

I talked with a bunch of my friends about moving to Bloomfield, where it's a drop cheaper, but at that point none of use were in a position to buy a house anywhere, and we're all pretty attached to our shul.
