You’ll want a car after a while regardless of where you live. There are places to visit you would have a hard time getting to without. It just makes life way easier.

Plenty of people live in North Jersey close to NY and don't have a car. Just like tons people live in NY itself and don't have a car. It's very doable if you don't want to have one, which not everybody does.

I was in Louisville recently, I flew in and rented a car. Not owning a car doesn't mean you can't drive one, just that you can get by without one for your day to day life so why throw unnecessary money at it.

As someone from north jersey who had no car and now has one, not having a car is not it. Its a miserable way to live in nj and people cant always only go to manhattan. Not having a car in ny only works because its a big city.
