Mendham Among 'Snobbiest' Towns in N.J., Ranking Shows

It seems like more often than not Mendham is perched atop a new ranking or list for safest town, best schools, or most desirable place to live.

The western Morris County town has found itself on another list, but this one isn’t as glamorous. Let’s remember, though, it’s all in good fun.

According to roadsnacks.net, Mendham is the third most “snobbiest” town in New Jersey, trailing Princeton and Chatham, and leading towns like Edgewater and Glen Ridge.

The website took a look at New Jersey towns with a population of 5,000 or more, and created a point system to rank median home price, median household income, percent of population with a college degree, and a few other pieces of criteria.

According to the site’s ranking of Mendham:

Okay, okay, you guys are allowed to be snobby. No, not because you have plenty of art galleries per capita or because almost all of your residents hold college degrees; because you, dear Mendham, were once the home of Peter Dinklage. And any place that brings the world Tyrion Lannister is A-OK.

Plus, you all have a lot of money, so snob away. You’ve earned it.

The full top 10 includes:

• Princeton
• Chatham
• Mendham
• Edgewater
• Glen Ridge
• Bernardsville
• Westfield
• Hoboken
• Summit
• Oradell
