If you are into peace and quiet and love hunting and shooting sports but want to stay close to a big city, there are few places better.  

Also get audio books there.Bought my last sports car way below value with the commission savings of my FSBOs last year.

One of the guys at my office is from New Jersey, and used to do leasing there - completely different sport than here in AZ, for SURE.  

I was not properly prepared for the combination of my work schedule (full time - surprise week of travel), holiday prep (gifts, 5 separate school performances for the kids, kids sports/logistics, hosting new years party), finalizing my engagement plans, and the increase of contact with possible sellers (formulating my first offers ever).  

Hey @John Asare, like you I workout as well and have a sports background (checkout my profile for full story).

Less than five minutes walk from the beach, a fishing pier, sporting equipment rentals, a grocery store, and it's next door to a year-round diner.

To use some sports parlance to perhaps illustrate the point, if it were a boxing match, the scorecard would read:  10 - 4 in favor of Irvington (i.e. not even close).If you look at some of the listings from the online sources for the Highlands neighborhood you reference, you would/could consistently find single-family homes which have sold below $20,000.
