Hi!
I've lived in Somerset since 1996. elementary schools are great, very diverse and blue ribbon, magnet schools. The high school has gotten a bad rap because of the actions of a few but they have great teachers, a good AP and honors program, lots of clubs and my kids (graduated last year) who never got into trouble, played sports, were in student government, took AP and honors classes, were accepted to great colleges including UNC and Georgetown. Check the board of ed website for more on the magnet programs.
there is no north or south somerset. I live off JFK Blvd, my backyard backs up to it....the houses are nice, I have a great neighborhood, except there are still a lot of senior citizens, meaning very few kids in my immediate neighborhood but I like my area, being close to everything, including the NY bus which runs down jfk in the am and pm! feel free to email me @
