Insane what it costs to live there and just how piss poor the infrastructure is

Further north as long as it’s not northwest lol

The usefulness and existence of it very much depends on where in the state you’d be moving to

Could be worse at least it’s not newarks roads

Honestly less of a testament to anything particularly great about JC and more about how awful the situation is in the rest of the country.

Ugh

Philly has a lot more affordable apartments than Newark and typically in much nicer areas with far more to do than there is in Newark. And sure the region is expensive but Newark was always affordable. That’s changing now and you seem to be good with it. Good for you but if you don’t already own a home here I suggest you do that asap otherwise enjoy being priced out.

You can have a cultural hub and shiny new toys and still have a more affordable city. Look no further than Philly for that. You shouldn’t be trying to justify 2500 dollar studios for a city where 1/3 people live in poverty

I get you have a chip on your shoulder because Newark has a crappy reputation but it’s never gonna be on par with NYC or seen in the same light. People have always spent time in Newark but I guess if you want a bunch of ex pat NYC yuppies this is your path to that. Have fun

Incorrect. Sussex county has gotten a decent amount of snow. Still NJ.

Because you do. Newark used to be affordable but as it continues to become a bedroom community for NYC transplants we’re all getting priced out

I don’t understand. Are you a developer? Do you want it to cost more to live in Newark?

Newark is really poorly lit at night especially downtown

Yeah have fun crossing that as a pedestrian whenever you want to access it

Those rents are obscene. To live next to a six lane highway no less. Yeesh

Yeah but then we get the bougie expensive prices to go along with it

That’s a good spot

Yeah much better over there you shouldn’t have any issues

That area is okay but the closer to the park the better. You’ll be fine if you’re used to depressed American cities and there’s some decent food spots on Bloomfield Ave.

A Vietnamese sushi fusion place?

Good luck

Who is “they”?

Good thing it doesn’t look like I’ll ever retire

?

There’s someone on this sub that gets triggered if you call ocean county south
