This is untrue. "Princeton, New Jersey" is not a legal entity; there are actually two legal entities that make up "Princeton": the Borough of Princeton and the Princeton Township. Addresses in both areas say "Princeton, New Jersey" WhisperToMe 16:49, 11 July 2006 (UTC)

And, it's false. Do you know how often the addresses don't match the municipality in the United States? All locations in West University Place, Texas have "Houston" addresses. Does this mean they are in the city of Houston? No. Therefore that reasoning is flawed. Therefore PHS will continue to say that the school is in the borough.

There are countless examples of places with addresses that are misleading about where they are (Westfield High School (Harris County, Texas) has a Houston address but is not in Houston).

Do not change it back. It has been decided that this will say "borough of Princeton." The fact that the school has a "Princeton, New Jersey" address doesn't change the fact that it is in the borough of Princeton. WhisperToMe 21:19, 15 July 2006 (UTC)

You have heard of talk pages, haven't you? See Talk:Princeton High School (New Jersey) - I'll even show you a quote...

"IMHO it makes sense for the "legal" location to be in the lead of the article, not in the infobox which gives the address (since the address is Princeton, not the Borough), and to leave it out for the rest of the article. As far as feeder patterns go, I have no particular feeling, but I have to say the section on the choir is thoroughly bloated. Mak (talk) 01:57, 29 June 2006 (UTC)

   I'm in agreement with your in the lead but not with the infobox idea :) WhisperToMe 02:18, 29 June 2006 (UTC) "

In other words, he gave a proposal, and I agreed. That equals consensus, folks.

Also, User:Alansohn sides with me. One of his statements from my talk page reads: ":All of New Jersey is incorporated. Every square inch is part of one of New Jersey's 566 municipalities. Part of the confusion we have in New Jersey is that people think that they "live" in their post office location. For example, in Hun School of Princeton, the statement that the school is "located in Princeton Township, New Jersey" is 100% accurate. That "The school has a 'Princeton, New Jersey' mailing address" is true, but starts in the wrong direction. That it "is thought to be 'in Princeton'." goes over the edge. At a maximum, the "in Princeton" statements (and certainly Princeton, New Jersey wikilinks) should be removed, wherever they appear. Alansohn 02:22, 5 June 2006 (UTC)"
