Princeton is so fortunate to be surrounded by a great support staff of other communities. They each have a unique vibe - full of history and culture – and are recognized destinations on their own. So, POL highly suggests hitting Hopewell, Kingston, Lambertville, Lawrenceville, Newtown Yardley, & Pennington for food, music, shops, trails, galleries, and if nothing else, a new perspective on life. Go on, or go home – you choose.
