As others have said, get outside DT and it's not a problem. I've invested in the Heights so I'm biased, but my young tenants love it there in their <$2k 2BRs. Not only do you have a lot of great stuff going on along Central and Palisade, and great access to the City and DT, but to Hoboken as well via the Congress St elevator or 100 Steps. Your only problem will be renting parking if you aren't ready for street parking.

Someone in the district is in the process of coordinating a collection with her mom. I can post when I get the details.

Thanks. Should have highlighted that better.

This guy parks a lot in Paulus Hook. The rest of the car is even worse then this picture shows

Four Fitness Hamilton Park

Another nugget from someone who was pressed over a Reddit post. You just keep them coming, don’t you!

Your own opinion is defined by yourself but you don’t define other peoples opinions. Pity you need that explained to you. 🤷‍♂️

Got it, just wanted to make sure you had numbers and such right but sounds like you do since you're trying to go from 1 bedroom to 2 bedroom.

If you can stick with your current rent or closer to it, you shouldn't have an issue finding a luxury building in Bergen Lafayette near the light rail. You'd want to be looking near the northern part of Bergen Lafayette. The area isn't as neighborhoody as Hamilton park or the heights, but the light rail can get you downtown in a few minutes.

I live near the light rail and personally love how I can get throughout most of Jersey City and Hoboken on it very easily, even parts of weehawken and Bayonne. But I don't need to go to the city, not sure if you would find it annoying to have to transfer to the path on a regular basis.

Based on your response I'm already changing my opinion of thinking you should move to Bergen Lafayette whereas before I said the heights. So moral of the story is definitely check out the neighborhoods!

Anybody know the new name? Used to be Hamilton health and fitness.

Another nugget from the non doctor non comedian non photographer who gives unsolicited diagnoses, makes unfunny jokes, and takes bad photos. You just keep them coming, don't you!

My opinion is defined by my opinion. Pity you need that explained to you. 🤷‍♂️

Humor isn’t defined by your opinion. Is that something that you can comprehend?

You’re insinuating that only doctors can tell when someone is unstable, only comedians can tell jokes, and only photographers can take pictures. I might not be any of those things but at least Im not pressed over a Reddit post.

Oof! Nice!! No convention that I am aware of, but this guy had an NYC plate, so maybe in Manhattan, or close by!

thanks for all this. Yes, i’m trying to lower my rent. i’m paying $2800 for a 1 bed + $250 for parking. I have explored other neighborhoods, just not at lengths and i value the people who have been living here for years and what they might have to say.

What is there, a convention?

I spotted this car today as well.

I got it. It's not funny. Jokes are supposed to be funny. You don't get that. 🤷‍♂️

You're not a doctor, comedian, or good photographer. 🤷‍♂️

This is what gets me too

This is what gets me too

Other people got it, so your point is moot. Humor isn’t defined by your opinion.

I’ll got to an improv class when you finally see a doctor. But in all seriousness I hope you’re just trolling. Surely you’re not this unwell and annoying.

Their poor daughter, I don't know how you cope as a 14 year old having just witnessed your father shooting and killing your mother. I hope she has a strong extended family support system, such a tragic loss.

You don't get what a sense of humor is. I got it. It's not funny. That's the point. 😂

There's some improv and stand up classes I could recommend. Because your post was the exact OPPOSITE of a joke. 🤷‍♂️

Other people got it and I really don’t respect your opinion. Anyway, check out betterhelp

You won't have an issue in a walkup in basically any neighborhood, except downtown, but may even get lucky with a few listings downtown.

Your budget is pushing it for luxury buildings, even in JSQ and Bergen Lafayette. If you're willing to up it a few hundred, it would be much more reasonable, if luxury building is an absolute requirement. Might I ask what you are paying now? $2500 for a 2 bedroom in a luxury building near Hamilton park sounds incredibly low, even if it's a quote from a few years ago. Unless you are trying to lower your rent now?

The neighborhoods vary so much and all except Greenville (not somewhere you'd be looking anyway) have easy city access. In the heights, make sure you're close to the bus or the light rail, JSQ close to the path, Bergen Lafayette close to the light rail. Portions of all of these neighborhoods will be close to this stuff and portions will not. But Hamilton park isn't exactly great for city access either. If you consider it to be then you probably won't have an issue at all.

You really should just walk around and decide which you like the most. If you like the Hamilton park area, I'd personally lean towards the heights but you may feel differently. If your lease is up soon you've presumably lived in town at least a year - you haven't explored other neighborhoods?

That was addressed with the observation of your lacking sense of humor. 🤷‍♂️
