Summit, Montclair. I wouldn't want to commute to NYC from any further west, personally. I would look at towns along the Morris/Essex line. Summit, Short Hills, Millburn are all very nice (but expensive). You could probably find something smaller as a starter home - what's your budget/how far of a commute can you tolerate?

~400k would be my budget. Looking for 35- 40 min commute time. Don't care about schools or anything like that cus I'm pretty junior. 

You either need to increase your budget or increase the commute or rent.  Your budget is not compatible at all with your commute.  35 to 40 minutes is very close to NYC and will be very expensive
