Like elsewhere in America, most people in Monroe Township use a private automobile to get to work. One bright side is that local public transit is widely used, so it may be an option to avoid the headache of driving in the heavy traffic by leaving the car at home and taking transit. On average, people spend 37.82 minutes each day getting to work, which is significantly higher than the national average. In Monroe Township, however, the average commute to work is quite long. But overall this is a solid community, with many things to recommend it as a family-friendly place to live.

Is Monroe Township perfect? Of course not, and if you like frenetic nightlife, it will be far from your cup of tea. With an enviable combination of good schools, low crime, college-educated neighbors who tend to support education because of their own experiences, and a high rate of home ownership in predominantly single-family properties, Monroe Township really has some of the features that families look for when choosing a good community to raise children. Because of many things, Monroe Township is a very good place for families to consider.
