In what world is the Liberty Harbor area considered "South Jersey City"?

This is literally why locals hate newcomers who act like Downtown JC is ALL there is to Jersey City. Ever looked at a map of the city where you have chosen to live? If anything, it would be much more accurate to describe the Liberty Harbor area as central JC. It is literally like the halfway point in an imaginary line from the southernmost point of JC to the northernmost point.

It's definitely not south JC but we understand where they are, so it's okay. Let's be a tad more welcoming.

Plot twist: when OP said he moved here from the southern US, he meant Virginia.

Touch grass. It’s sad to get upset over geography when there’s more important things to worry about.

This helps toughen them up for the streets, it's part of the process.
