Thirty-seven miles east of Philadelphia, Wrightstown is a New Jersey borough in Burlington County, just outside Joint Base McGuire–Dix–Lakehurst. "Most of the people in Wrightstown are military or civilians working on the base," says Freda Gorma, municipal clerk of Wrightstown. "It's a suburban feel but very heavy on business and rentals." The borough is less than 2 square miles, so amenities are limited, except for a diverse range of casual restaurants. "It's a small town," Gorma says.

Homes rarely go on the market, but prices range from about
