It's beyond Hamilton park. Just north of there. If you walk under the approach to the Holland Tunnel.

Go down Coles until you are past where the overpass is and there are a lot of murals in that area. Great if you are looking for an urban slightly gritty feel.

Unfortunately our proximity to the Holland Tunnel creates a lot of these issues. We have a lot of drivers who are in a hurry using Jersey City surface streets to rush towards the tunnel. They don't live here and have no regard for the community.
When you add the lack of enforcement of basic traffic laws like running stop signs and red lights, it's a perfect storm for chaos on our streets.

Reply to Just got our lease renewal numbers. For a 12 month lease renewal, our rent will increase over 10%. I don't see how this is sustainable long term. by chazthetic
I just received a 15% increase in Hilltop. It was 6% last year. I keep sucking it up because I don't want to move, but eventually it just won't be worth it anymore.

First of all welcome to JC. After 13 years of living here I have learned to walk defensively. Always expect someone is going to make a right turn into you while you are in the crosswalk, or just run a red light, or make a left to try to beat traffic without them noticing you. Don't walk with headphones on and always be scanning around you. It's just life here unfortunately. There is no traffic enforcement by the police and everyone that drives around here knows that and they do whatever the fuck they want. Even our city council people run over people here and get a slap on the wrist and stay in office.

Not surprising. I am an account executive in New Jersey. Not saying what industry, but I will not bother quoting the city, or the schools, or anything NYC government related because of the red tape and how difficult they make it to secure a contract. I no bid. I have enough work at this time. Not surprising the people who do bid these projects mark them up incredibly to cover all the extra bullshit it takes to do business with the city.

I did not realize you could open the windows of that building enough to jump out. That's a busy pedestrian block. Glad no one else got hurt or killed.

I lived in Metropolis Towers for a long time. My EX lived in the Lincoln in HP. Both places had lots of Indian cooking going on. Its just something that you need to get used to if you live in a big building. PS... they might think your cooking smells weird too!

Sometimes people connect with and befriend others who they share common experiences with. Growing up gay can be very difficult and many gay people like to socialize and build a network with their fellow gay brothers and sisters. Chosen family. To the OP, there are lots of family here in Jersey City. You should not have any problem.

Also, keep in mind that depending on what is going on with the rental market the broker fee can be negotiated. Not exactly with the broker, but with the landlord who hired the broker to list the property. If rentals start to be in less demand this year, possible to split the fee with the landlord or have them pay it fully if you are highly qualified. Right now, most tenants are paying the brokerage fee, but that changes due to market conditions.

The max security deposit allowed by the state of NJ is 1.5 months so could be less. From my experience one month is more common. Also, you don't always need a broker, but if you are moving from out of state, I would recommend it to handle things for you.
