City Information
West Windsor Township
West Windsor is a township (not big enough to be a city, too big to be a village) in Mercer County, New Jersey. The close-knit community gets plenty of traffic from golfers heading to the Mercer Oaks Golf Course, a massive area comprising 18 holes, 7,000 yards of course, and a par of 72. Just east of Mercer Oaks is Cranbury Golf, founded in 1964 with six par 3s.
But there’s plenty more to West Windsor than golfing. Duck Pond Park has tennis, basketball, and, of course, a duck pond. The West Windsor Community park offers 123 acres of trails, dog parks, and sports fields. Zaitz Woods Nature Preserve is the best spot in the city for easy trails and bird watching. Visit Van Nest Park to see the Martian Landing Site Marker, a 7.5 foot bronze marker noting where Martians first touched down on Earth (in H.G. Wells' War of the Worlds).
When you’re ready to head indoors, swing by the AR Workshop West Windsor for wine and wood painting classes. Food-wise, local favorites include Aljon's Pizza & Restaurant, Classico Tomato Pies, Seasons 52, and many more. Head to the Windsor Plaza outdoor mall for shopping and to grab a burger or some sushi.

Philadelphia
We may feel a little bit more than just brotherly love for Philadelphia, a city steeped in history and culture. Where else can you channel your inner Rocky Balboa on his epic run, and later enjoy an authentic Philly cheesesteak as a reward?
Philadelphia’s affordability (especially compared to other East Coast cities) is just one of many reasons it is among Wanderu’s best destinations for college students. Another reason is how much there is to do! Early American history takes precedence at Independence Hall and the Liberty Bell, while museums abound on Benjamin Franklin Parkway, sometimes called the most artistic mile in the city. Head to Reading Terminal Market to fuel up for a night hitting the bars, clubs, and live music joints that line South Street.
Philadelphia is a major hub for both Greyhound and Amtrak, and its 30th Street Station is one of the busiest stations in the country. The plentitude of ground travel and the nearby Philadelphia International Airport make this exciting city very easily accessible, even on a budget.
