Reply to comment by foot-trail in Does Jersey City recycle No. 5 plastics? by Formydad2299

Yes - that’s why it’s a dumb comment to make. It’s not a natural transition it’s a deliberate effort to displace people. Why would anyone act like that is positive?

You realize not all poor people are criminals right? And they need a place to live too?

Also there is still plenty of crime lol JC famously under reports stats but if you know anyone in other neighborhoods shootings are a regular occurrence.

They can live in low cost of living areas. Shootings are not a regular occurrence in the heights or journal square. I have friends who live there.

There are no low cost of living areas anymore because of gentrification and anything remotely affordable is quickly diminishing. Welcome to planet earth - you’ll catch up soon!

I’m really proud of you for knowing people in the heights and journal square but JC is huge and that isn’t all of it so I don’t know what point you think you are making.
