Better crowds - September
Better weather - November
I'd also avoid Jersey Week. OP's dates are at the tail end of Jersey Week, and coincide with Veteran's Day. Its not Spring Break level crowds, but it would be higher than OP's September dates.Crowds can be very manageable in November as well if you stay away from Thanksgiving week.
We've been in November three times and every day of each trip was hit or miss when it came to the weather. We've had 70s and 80s, and also 50s and 60s. Also had lots of rain, even though November is statistically the driest month. If a person chooses November, I would also say they should be ok with potentially not using the pool. We didn't get to use the pool at all on one of our November trips. November is also still within hurricane season, but the activity is more prominent in September.We were there in early November 2018, and it got into upper 80s, but that was apparently a slight anomaly. I've also read reports of being being surprised by unexpectedly cool weather, so bring some layers.
True, November’s weather is more varied, even if many of us consider it more pleasant overall. September has guaranteed pool weather, though!We've been in November three times and every day of each trip was hit or miss when it came to the weather. We've had 70s and 80s, and also 50s and 60s.

Exactly this. Also something to think about...more rain in september. BUT sept is perfect if you wanna swim. It might be too cool in Nov to go swimming. Still between the two, i'd pick Nov. Cooler weather makes park touring more manageable.Better crowds - September
