Hmmm, I drove past my new company from the apartment I was looking at today, and it was only 5 minutes or so to drive... 15 extra minutes to my commute? The traffic can't be that bad, can it?
Sounds like you are right off Rt 46. It might not be so bad if you are taking Bloomfield Ave all the way down. The ave doesn't have too many traffic lights and there are 2 lanes. The problem is getting out of that town in any other direction and I forgot you are going to Fairfield. Just remember though, that town has absolutely NOTHING to do in it. It has no major highways near it and the cops in that town are ridiculous! They have nothing to do other than bother people about seatbelts and tail lights.
My major problem is with the cops not doing their job. They gave me hell over the years about the smallest things like 10 mph over the speed limit or improper use of high beams etc. But when a bank got robbed in that town twice in the same week, the cops didnt do much other than hold thier dick in their hands. You should be fine though. They arent as tough out there anymore. I now live in Edison which is very close to New Brunswick but I'm in Caldwell all the time.
Verona is pretty cool but its further up. They have a couple of decent bars in that town. Montclair is really up and coming. Lot of things to do in that town but its a little bit further in the other direction. How come you arent looking at East Hanover, Whipanny or Parsipanny? They are on the opposite direction on Rt 46. btw: I'm heading out to New Brunswick right now. Good night.
