House-hacking in NJ with a Duplex/Triplex

Hey guys,

I am new to the forum—I appreciate any and all help! I am set to graduate from The College of New Jersey this December and my mind has been wondering about the future... preferably where I want to live and how I want to begin my real estate investing career. I am set to begin work in January, and the job is fully remote, so I do not need to be in any set location. However, I am born and raised in NJ and would prefer to live somewhere in the state. My goal has been to house-hack, preferably with a duplex or triplex. Anyone know of a specific area of NJ for me to begin my search? My initial thought was to search in Northern Jersey (closer to NYC), as COVID has sparked a work-from-home movement and people move out of the city...but I am open to suggestions, and would love to be pointed in a general direction ideal for duplexes/triplexes. Thank you all!

@Ryan Solomon

Yes, if you want a multi-family look towards the urban areas.  Out by me, they are pretty far and few between, relatively.  Good luck.
