We (couple + 2 preschool kids) are planning to move to a good school district town from NYC area and have shortlisted Chatham and Summit. I find both of them very similar - great school districts with similar commute (Summit little better) to NYC. We drove around, spent time in downtown. visited some open houses and love both. Summit seems more diverse but I wasn't able to find which one of these two towns has more Indian families. Are both similar in this respect or one has higher %/# of Indian families than the other? (I am aware there are other good school districts in the proximity with larger Indian communities but I am specifically trying to decide between Summit and Chatham). Any input will be very helpful. Thank you!

Chatham has slightly better schools if you believe the ratings.
Summit is more diverse, 85% white versus close to 95% for the Chathams.

Plenty of desis throughout all of NJ. But I think you might find more in Summit. Can't go wrong with either.

Summit is “more diverse”, but does that specifically mean Indian? I personally know more Indian families from Chatham, but that’s anecdotal.
