Today's puzzle
Winfield Township doesn't make many top-ten lists, and that's fine with the people who live there. It's one of the smallest municipalities in Union County — just under 1,500 residents tucked between Linden and Clark — and it runs almost entirely on residential streets with no real downtown, no train station, and no Main Street boutiques. What it does have is affordable housing and a genuine neighborhood feel that's increasingly rare in this part of New Jersey.
Most of the homes here are modest single-family ranches and Cape Cods, with prices generally running below neighboring Clark and Cranford. If your budget is tight and you still want Union County, Winfield is worth a look.
