Carteret
Carteret is a borough on the Arthur Kill waterfront, historically industrial but now seeing new residential and cultural redevelopment. Its location near the New Jersey Turnpike, Routes 1&9, and the Goethals Bridge makes it highly accessible. Housing ranges from older single-family homes and duplexes to newer townhomes and apartments. Carteret Park and a growing waterfront walkway provide green space and views. A performing arts center and community events highlight the town's civic pride. Redevelopment aims to balance industry with improved quality of life.
Schools
Carteret Public Schools offer AP, CTE, and STEM programs across multiple elementary and middle schools.
