We have a job lead in NYC and need to know the best inexpensive communities that area quick / easy commute from the city. A warm, welcoming, young-family friendly community (pediatrician, parks) with a mix of hashkafas (more than one shul) but mostly yeshivish / yeshivish modern and many Baalei Teshuva (we are!). We are interested in / have contacts in Passaic, Monsey, Woodmere and have heard good things about Marine Park. Also, if you have leads for 2 bedroom apartments in any of these or other appropriate areas - that would be great! Any advice is appreciated. Thanks!

Monsey is not a quick commute. It will take an hour and half by bus. It is not easy.
Passiac is closer.
The closer and easier the commute the more expensive housing will be.

Passaic is wonderful. Commute varies based on location in NYC, of course Smile . Have you tried checking luach.com for apartment rentals?

The best place to live for a young frum family, is Elizabeth NJ, not to be confused with Hillside NJ (which is 2 miles away). It has every quality of a midwestern community, but it is 30 minutes from NYC.

the community is a very well established , but lacked young familes for a number of years. about 2 years ago they started trying to get more and have since gotten about 15 young couples and families to move into town.

the community offers a a day school from nursery thru 8th grade. it has a boys mesivta and girls high school (Bruriah). it has a beis medrash and kollel and has a number of restaurants.

the rav and rebbetzin are the warmest people and are available for anything at anytime.

and the best part about elizabeth NJ is that houses are priced between 200-300K
