Ask someone who grew up in Springfield, NJ and they'll probably tell you the same thing: it doesn't try to be anything it isn't. No downtown buzz competing with Westfield, no train-town identity like Cranford. Springfield is quieter than most of its Union County neighbors, and for a lot of residents, that's exactly the point.

Union County Life covers Springfield as part of its ongoing guide to life across Union County — and this town has more going on beneath the surface than first-timers expect.
