The small town is a little quieter than nearby Newark and just a stone's throw away from Manhattan. Residents of Kearny know the town as "CAR-knee," but out-of-towners will usually try to call the town "KEER-knee," which might elicit a laugh or two from a local. However, as long as you remember how to pronounce the town's name, you shouldn't have any problem settling in this relatively quiet suburb.
Why live in Kearny, NJ?
