Reply to comment by HappyArtichoke7729 in Anyone have any insights to the Journal Squared apartments on Pavonia Ave.? by [deleted]

the only review on apartments.com lol and google reviews made it seem very unsafe (I am not familiar with Jersey City at all)

It's a fine area, and you don't need a car AT ALL to live there.

The neighborhood is pretty safe plus JS2 is RIGHT on top of the path station so you’ll have Port Authority police milling around on top of the regular police department

Ooh that’s fantastic- thanks again for the insight!! I mean where I live now definitely isn’t the best- I checked the crime rates and compared and I definitely live in a worse area currently lol!

The path station attracts the homeless the same any warm, public place that’s open 24/7 would but I’ve never had any issues. Most people just want to stay safe and warm, not cause trouble.
