    Laugh DONE at Drexel!!! Moving a little further north....suggestions???

    Well I finished my last class at Drexel University tonight Lauren finishes up tomorrow. Graduation is next Saturday (CDML ), so its celebrations until then :

    Anyway, I start full time at Navair in Lakehurst working on the electromagnetic catapult systems come July 20th. Lauren actually got a job there as well and starts the same day. In order to get my relocation bonus I need to move at least 50 miles from my current addy....Swedesboro NJ 08085. (Lakehurst is 75 miles from me)

    I'd like to stay within 90 mins of Swedesboro, since the truck will still be staying at home until I get a house with a nice big garage in a couple years, so I gotta be close for weekend wrenching We're just looking for a smaller apartment, nothing fancy, or at the most a small place with a garage, but its not totally necessary. Just trying to save up for a couple years & pay off the loans then get a house & GARAGE! lol

    So, if anybody has any recommendations for what towns to look at thats in that 90 min range of Swedesboro, and within 20-30 mins of Lakehurst, lemme know! Once that turnpike goes to more than 2 lanes each direction at exit 4, I'm in North Jersey and I've got no idea where I'm headed

    CONGRATS DUDE!! I'd say move to Hunterdon County and get in touch with your inner redneck but that doesn't help you out getting close to Lakehurst

    So we've been looking at places in Whiting and Manchester online. Never been to those areas, so no idea what they're like, but any of you guys have any ideas?

    Those towns are pretty ideal since they're like 1:15 from my house and 0:20 from Navair, and 0:40 from Laurens house. Plus there's a few WaWa's and an Advance Auto in the area

    The PITA is finding a place though, found a few decent 1 or 2 bedroom smaller houses with an attached garage, email in for more info, and the realtor's call back 55 & older only For some reason they like to not put that in the ad's

    lol, any other smaller towns in that area that I should look into? I'm not sure the best way to go about finding a place to rent up there. Finding stuff online in areas like that are a PITA since I'm sure not everythings listed, and the ones that are, they put up 1 crappy pic and a half azz description, and most end up being 55 & older or some other BS the ad should tell you and doesnt
