JC is great. If you’re close to a train station, you can easily commute to Madison / Morristown area. I went to college in Madison, and while Morristown is really nice I don’t think it’s the best place to move if you don’t have anyone already there or have an S/O.
Jersey City is a good move. As is Hoboken. Hoboken definitely has some negative aspects, but it isn’t all that. Either one will be good. I think you’ll have better luck meeting people in Hoboken. It’s a younger, more outgoing crowd. JC is kind of a commuter city, people are in and out, and Hoboken is is more of a small town vibes kinda place.

Reply to Base Gym is a shit show by quehso
Haha sounds like Base should have taken the Equinox approach. If you’re going to pay a premium, you expect a premium product. Not just equipment and amenities, but also the idea that they won’t pack the gym with members ruining the premium experience.
IMO, high end gyms should have an intake survey. One of those questions should be “what is the typical time you work out?” .. this way they can deny or accept applicants based on volume.

100%. People here are arguing with me about Razza. I’m not saying it’s shit, but it isn’t that great. The guy got a minute of fame, that’s it. Porto is meh, good place to go though. Decent menu.

Additionally, just because they have a following doesn’t mean anything. Most people don’t know what good food actually is. I’m not saying their pizza sucks, I’m saying it doesn’t deserve the hype.
Just because something gets attention doesn’t mean it is good. Omega watches have far superior technology compared to Rolex watches, but Rolex still gets the attention. You’re mad ignorant

Nah. Razza’s pizza really isn’t all that the media hypes it up to be. Although they classify themselves as “artisanal” pizza, they walk a very thin line on Neapolitan style. If you want a really special place, I would highly suggest S. Egidio in Ridgewood, NJ. Very difficult to get into. The pizza there is 1000x better and their menu is also a much higher caliber. You cannot make reservations.
Razza is okay but unfortunately a lot of people around here don’t know what good food is. I say this because of the hype JC-area folks give to Razza. The Jersey City food scene is pretty disappointing; disappointing because I would just expect more from this area, not that there aren’t a number of good spots. There are a few great locations such as Corto, ONDO, DOMODOMO, and I’m sure there are at least 3-4 more I can name… Kitchen Step, Battello, Light Horse Tavern.
I’ve been to Liberty Prime Steakhouse. It was okay. Nothing spectacular. I have not been to Edward’s yet.
If you want really great food every single time you go, take a trip to Houston’s at the Riverside Square Mall in Hackensack, NJ. You’ll need to make a reservation days in advance. Also, go check out Fiorentini in Rutherford, NJ. Tell Chef Kevin that Dave sent you.

First date? You should skip that. Ask her father if you can marry her. Dating is overrated. There is a divorce lawyer close by, divorces only cost $399.

You’re very unaware of how American cities work then. You seem like one of those people who promotes sanctuary cities and then complains when people who broke the federal immigration law get bussed up to your city.
That said, your argument is invalid. EMT’s ignoring car crash victims could disproportionately affect people of color. That’s why they MUST take care of victims. Cops worrying themselves with low level crimes disproportionately affects people of color; this is why they MUST ignore them.

Although it could be the very same reason police officers cannot/do not act upon people stealing under $1000 of merchandise from stores in San Francisco. Democratic policies that are meant to protect so called “protected classes of people” (Black, Latino) inherently allow for low level criminal activity to proliferate because the notion is that if you’re tough on crime it will disproportionately affect Blacks and Latinos. Being tough on crime, even the lowest of crimes, breeds a culture that says “we don’t fuck around you’ll get put where you belong if you break the law - any law” and then your police force will be forced to report on all crimes. Does this potentially force police officers to spend time on low level crimes meanwhile there is a shoot out across town? Possibly. Up to you on how you want to divvy up the force and their attention and/or their funding.
What you’re asking for is what most democratic pundits would call “racist policy” and by this logic you are a racist. Congrats on being inducted to the majority of citizens who are considered racist under this ideology.

My friend, you are asking the wrong question. You should be asking why is it that culture and society in Jersey City has allowed for this type of behavior (behavior of the citizens) to proliferate? You can’t expect a police force that is not incentivized to act and clean up the neighborhood…to act and clean up the neighborhood.
I run by police officers on Newark every morning. I usually say hi. Tomorrow I’ll stop and chat with them, tell them about what people say, and report back.

Reply to Probably dumb question, but is it ethically okay to take picts of houses with cute/spooky/good decoration of Halloween theme? by EksXxx
I think that’s why people do it - so everyone looks at the decorations which facilitates taking pictures. As the law goes (as a side bar, of course)… you should have very little expectation of privacy in public.

Is black hair different from other colored hair? I didn’t realize the color of the hair made cutting different. I guess that’s why I’m not a barber
