Reply to comment by tuggyforme in how is it like for Indians in newark? by Klutzy-Tackle-

You can live in one of the half a dozen rent controlled buildings in a 600+ sq ft studio in the north ward for 1200/mo including everything but internet. Stfu if you don't know what you're talking about. You're just a fear mongerer talking about things outside of your knowledge base. Go swim in the Passaic

The north ward is shitty too.

I'm just saying if the dude is going to travel thousands of miles across oceans to experience something new, Newark is a crappy place to start. Any other City in NJ is better.

He's going to figure it out by himself sooner or later. And then, this guy will think you guys are a bunch a dicks.

But he's going to college in Newark. Furthermore, broad st to springfield and the hill from NJMS down to military park is fine, and heavily patrolled by NJIT and Rutgers police. So the pavilion would be right there. Sit your unqualified to speak on this topic self down. Your knowledge is musty at best.

Granted, but it's still shitty. He's coming to the free world... not to live somewhere where windows are barred up and patrols have to keep strangers from mugging him... like this is not a good environment to enjoy this new part of the world... fkin hell.. too bad he can't go to like some nice place in central jersey or like bergen co or more rural north or south counties.. or even lancaster PA.. there are SO many nicer places, where ppl are not so despondent and broke down, and things are nicer and friendlier, ppl are more gentle and easy going... he's trading one messy socially dysfunctional overcrowded place for another. They done sent this kid straight to the hood smh, like why tho?

That is not where he got accepted to college, get it through your cheese filled brain. You're crossing from uneducated to racist in this comment. Mods here are aggressive, you'll likely be gone soon.

Ad Hominem. This has nothing to do with race.

He could buy a used car and just drive 20 minutes. It would be the smarter thing to do. He can sleep easy and not worry about craziness waking him up every other night.

I'm 35, "ad hominem" just outs you as a highschooler. Your solution to the kid coming here for the first time is to have them buy a car and drive 20 minutes in New Jersey to get to Newark? 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

In this case, it's what most smart people would do.

Thousands of people who work in Newark and go to schools in newark, don't live in Newark. Heck, I even know city workers who keep a cheap rental room in newark for official address, but live outside of Newark too.

Quit acting like it's far fetched.

>who keep a cheap rental room in newark for official address

So there are cheap enough rooms to rent that this makes economic sense and yet you believe they need to spend over $2k per month on rent? To be clear, your solution is to have someone who has never seen the US to move to NJ and use a car to commute, do you have any idea how expensive their auto insurance would be? Isn't your mom calling from upstairs for lunch or something ?

I lived in 3 different apartments from studio to 3 bedroom over 8 years living in Newark where I earned my grad degree and still work for the state government. Salaries for public employees are public. Almost no positions would make fiscal sense to do this over.
