Reply to comment by ItemCareful1077 in JC or Hoboken for a 26 yo single woman?? by ItemCareful1077

Anywhere east of the 78 loop (so downtown JC) is quite safe. The Heights is pretty safe for the most part. Journal Square statisically isn't too bad but it still gives me a rundown/dodgy feel. Bergen-Lafeyette is gentrifying rn so its block by block.

I would recommend downtown JC just due to accessebility to what you're looking for + safety + access to NYC.

Yes, 100% Downtown JC is what you’re looking at (Jersey City is really big and the neighborhoods are all quite different). Downtown is the most expensive, but the most urban/NYC-like and fits your budget for a luxury 1br.
