With a population of 40,921, Montclair is a diverse commuter town - but the bureaucracy can be a persistent headache. While its picturesque setting and cultural attractions draw many New Yorkers, the tax burden is heavy and winters are cold. Despite its progressive politics, Montclair may not be the ideal choice for those seeking a truly suburban lifestyle.
