As Lakewood’s population explodes, more and more home buyers are looking<br />
past the township borders towards greener pastures — or at least less crowded<br />
ones. Rising real estate prices in Lakewood, coupled with increased crowding and<br />
Lakewood’s relatively high property tax rate, have spurred growing South interest Lakewood in Lakewood’s<br />
neighbors to the west and south: Jackson and Toms River.<br />

Buying a home outside of Lakewood often affords the buyer more house and land<br />
for Whitesville their money, as the prices of these areas have not yet been driven up by demand<br />
from the frum community. Property tax rates in Jackson and Toms River are a<br />
full .5% lower. Additionally, just like Lakewood of years past, these communities are<br />
suburban, quiet, and have little congestion, offering superior quality of life. These<br />
same advantages can be disadvantages too, though, as these areas are further<br />
Eagle Ridge<br />
from the schools, shuls and shopping of Lakewood itself. Golf Club<br />

While some of this infrastructure may come with time, local residents and zoning<br />
boards often resist the encroachment of Jewish institutions. “Jackson Strong” and<br />
“Toms River Strong” signs urging locals not to sell out are a familiar sight. While<br />
most neighbors are courteous and polite to whoever behaves in kind to them, it is<br />
worthwhile to verify to the best of one’s ability that the nieghbors near a prospective<br />
home are respectful and not hostile.<br />
Aside from the comforts of feeling welcome, other issues<br />
to consider include:<br />
• Community infrastructure: As of this printing, no<br />
shuls have been approved in either Jackson or Toms<br />
River. Additionally, no mikveh is on the horizon in<br />
either town.<br />
• Construction permits: In Lakewood, it’s unfortunately<br />
too easy to fall into sloppy habits regarding<br />
permits and other building ordinances. Exercise<br />
care to hire contractors who are well-versed in the<br />
appropriate building codes and will adhere to the<br />
letter of the law while executing your project.<br />
• Transportation: When trying to obtain busing<br />
to Lakewood schools, students who live in other<br />
towns have met with varying degrees of success.<br />
The township reimburses the Lakewood Board of<br />
Lakewood schools; in practice, there are sometimes<br />
while others bring their children to the nearest stop<br />
