in Princeton
When it
comes to electrical work, you should always hire a professional electrician.
Due to the serious hazards involved with electricity, only licensed and insured
electricians should handle your electrical needs. Just because your neighbor
tells you how great of a handyman he is doesn’t mean they should touch your
home’s wiring. Simply put, electrical work is very dangerous and it isn’t worth
the risk. Even the jobs that appear simple and easy still require the services
of a professional electric contractor.
Princeton, New Jersey is located in Mercer County, New Jersey, United States.
Princeton University has been sited in the town
since 1756. Although Princeton is a "college town", there are other important
institutions in the area, including the
Institute for Advanced Study, Educational Testing Service (ETS), Opinion
Research Corporation, Siemens Corporate Research,
Sarnoff Corporation, FMC Corporation, The Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, Church
and Dwight, Berlitz International, and Dow
Jones & Com
The town is roughly equidistant between New York and Philadelphia. Princeton has
been home to New York commuters (via
Princeton Junction) since the end of World War II. [1] The town is close to many
major highways that can take residents to
both cities. While the Amtrak ridetime is similar to each city, the more usual
commuter train ride to New York via the New
Jersey Transit Northeast Corridor Line, is generally much shorter than the
equivalent train ride to Philadelphia, which
involves a transfer to SEPTA trains in Trenton. Princeton receives TV and radio
from both cities.
New Jersey's capital is the city of Trenton, but the governor's official
residence has been in Princeton since 1945, when
Morven in the borough became the first Governor's mansion. It was later replaced
by the larger Drumthwacket, a colonial
mansion located in the township. Morven became a museum property of the New
Jersey Historical Society.
Princeton was named #15 of the top 100 towns in the United States to Live and
Work In by Money Magazine in 2005.[2]
Although residents of Princeton (Princetonians) traditionally have a strong
community-wide identity, legally there is not one
municipality, but two: a township and a borough. The central borough is
completely surrounded by the township. The Borough
seceded from the Township in 1894 in a dispute over school taxes; the two
municipalities later formed the Princeton Regional
Schools, and some other public services are conducted together. There have been
three referenda proposing to reunite the two
Princetons, but they have all been narrowly defeated. The Borough contains
Nassau Street, the main commercial street, most of
the University campus, and incorporated most of the urban area until the postwar
suburbanization. Borough and Township now
have roughly equal populations, together approaching 30,000.
United States Postal Zip Codes for Princeton include 08542 (largely the
Borough), 08544 (the University), and 08540. The
latter covers areas outside Princeton proper, including portions of Lawrence,
Hopewell, and West Windsor Townships in Mercer
County, Montgomery and Franklin Townships in Somerset County, and Plainsboro and
South Brunswick Townships in Middlesex
County. The resulting ambiguity is exploited by local real estate agents who
will often advertise a property in these
neighboring communities as having a "prestigious Princeton address".[3][4]
Further adding to confusion is the spread of
"Princeton" as part of business, church and residential development even further
beyond the boundaries of the Township and
Borough. Princeton lies at latitude 40°21' North, longitude 74°40' West.

Choose A Professional & Experienced Electrician
When it
comes to electrical projects, it is important to hire a professional
electrician. Electricity is not only dangerous to work with, it can also pose
serious safety hazards if a job isn’t performed correctly. At first, it may
seem as if your do-it-yourself project was completed correctly, only to find
several months (or weeks) later, that you have serious complications.
Overloaded circuits can cause problems and faulty wiring is a fire hazard.
Therefore, you should always contract the services of a licensed, qualified
professional electric contractor to handle all of your electrical projects.
Princeton University, located in both the borough and the township and in West
Windsor Township, serves as a prominent
feature of Princeton.
Westminster Choir College, part of Rider University, is located in the Borough.
Princeton Theological Seminary's academic campus is located in the Borough, and
a residential campus is located just outside
the Township in West Windsor Township.
The Institute for Advanced Study is in the Township and maintains extensive land
holdings (the "Institute Woods") in the
Township.
Mercer County Community College in West Windsor is the nearest public college to
serve Princeton residents.
Public schools
Princeton High School
The six public schools of the Princeton Regional Schools district serve both the
borough and the township: four elementary
schools (Community Park, Johnson Park, Littlebrook and Riverside), John
Witherspoon Middle School, and Princeton High School.
In the early 1990s, redistricting occurred between the Community Park and
Johnson Park School districts, as the population
within both districts had increased due to residential development. Concerns
were also raised about the largely white,
wealthy student population attending Johnson Park and the more racially and
economically diverse population at Community
Park. As a result of the redistricting, the wealthy Hodge Road/Library Place
neighborhood was redistricted to CP, and
portions of the racially diverse John Witherspoon Neighborhood were set to be
bused to JP. The high school is located in the
borough; the other schools are in the township. The high school also serves
students from Cranbury Township as part of a
sending/receiving relationship.
The Princeton Charter School (grades K-8) is located in the township. The school
operates under a charter granted by the
Commissioner of the New Jersey Department of Education. The school is a public
school that operates independently of the
Princeton Regional Schools, and is funded on a per student basis by
locally-raised tax revenues.
New Jersey Monthly magazine ranked Princeton High School as the 6th best high
school in New Jersey in its 2008 rankings of
the "Top Public High Schools" in New Jersey.
Private schools
Several private schools are located in the Township: American Boys choir School,
Hun School of Princeton, Princeton Academy of
the Sacred Heart, Princeton Day School, Princeton Friends School, and Stuart
Country Day School of the Sacred Heart.
St Paul School and The Lewis School and Diagnostic Clinic are located in the
Borough.
Schools that are outside the Township and Borough but have Princeton mailing
addresses include Chapin School and Princeton
Junior School in Lawrence Township, the Waldorf School of Princeton and
Princeton Montessori School in Montgomery Township,
and Eden Institute in West Windsor Township.
Public libraries
The Princeton Public Library, located in the borough, serves the borough and the
township. The current facility was opened in
April 2004 as part of the on-going downtown redevelopment project taking shape
and replaced a building dating from 1966. The
library itself was founded in 1909.
