What are you looking for? What are your priorities in terms of house search? JSQ is pretty vague and there are pockets which are nice and others that are run down but not dangerous.

Honestly, it's a good time to buy property in the journal square area. It’s really not a bad neighborhood. Easy access to mass transit and nyc. There are many ethnicities in the area and mom and pop shops. It’s pretty safe. And there is a bit of hustle and bustle… which you might appreciate since you live in Queens.

If I had the money, I would buy. My cousin has a small 2 story house that is 3 blocks from the Path. Developers are constantly trying to buy it from him. It’s worth close to 700,000.

In 5 years it’s going to look like another disneyfied soulless corporate ghetto.

Also, if you want to live even a slower life look at Bayonne. The market is hot and is also a good investment.
