I don’t have any specific advice for you in where to live but I STRONGLY recommend you are within a half hour of home for your commute. You may be working long hours (don’t know your specialty) and you are at risk of falling asleep at the wheel and DYING. It happened to me during residency and another resident I know who became paralyzed.

Let your husband commute a little extra please.

Appreciate the concern, genuinely. I’m in Psychiatry and thankfully I’m doing outpatient currently. . I can work from home a lot of the days, but have short call from 3:45pm-9:45pm about once a week, so that is the latest I’ll be at the hospital. I don’t think that’s too horrible a commute for once a week, but definitely something to consider. Thank you for your input.

Ahhh ok then let me make a suggestion: Red Bank NJ. It’s a short ferry ride to nyc (40 min) and just over an hour to Philly.

It’s set on a picturesque river, is right near the beach, has a famous performing arts center, and enough of a town that there is some nightlife and restaurants to try. The schools are excellent and it’s kinda beach without being a beach town.
