I find it insanely crowded. Do you know times when its not as crowded?

Eh good luck. It can be 70+ dollars so you will have to budget for it if you do it frequently. I’ve also had a few Ubers refuse to drive me to Jersey city before.

If you like nightlife I think you’re better of in Brooklyn anyways. It’s not like it’s thag much cheaper over here.

Sex workers mining for karma by getting JC residents to weigh in on the path… lol

Hound About Town, Love The Clutter, Word Bookstore, Cangianos(yum), would be some good options. Although, a Home Depot Gift card is really solid too.

Whoa a cab…from the path station to your home? Now I’ve heard everything.

Men on Reddit truly love to state the obvious and act like they are offering groundbreaking advice.

We have used Mutley Cru for our pets since 2018 and they have been great!

Stay in nyc !

My friend parked there and met me at Barcade once, I was wondering why he was out of breath lol we met at 3 PM and this was when street parking was two hours until 5 PM lol

I loved that lot for Golden Cicada. Which I'd walk to from 15th Street, but drive when it got cold.

Fitness on Central Ave, Heights.

There's Jersey City Runners which meets at Grove St. Lincoln Park and/or Danforth. Check provided link.

Grind had a massive showing the other day. Looked like an elite group out of a movie.

Taxi. Worth it .

Thanks, so the answer is that your reading comprehension IS that bad, and you can't tell I'm saying take the PATH to JC and then a car service home.

Do you even know what point you are attempting to make or are you that stupid that you really think no one else is aware taking public transit is cheaper than Uber? Or do you just panic and make random excuses so you can pretend the path is perfect to make sure your rental has a tenant?

The point is that the late night walk home from the path can feel not safe depending on the person. Not everyone is a man who lives on top of a path stop.

I said " it's a helluva lot cheaper taking a Lyft home to the Heights or B-L from JSQ than Brooklyn!"

Is your reading comprehension really that bad?

No one I know who lives in NYC is paying $1000/mo more than the rents in Downtown Jersey City.

I've lived in JC for the past 4+ years and have a lot of friends in Brooklyn and Manhattan, and honestly the real answer on how easy it is to commute is "it depends." Mostly, it depends specifically where you want to go. The further you get from the PATH, the more transfers you have to make, the more miserable the whole exercise becomes.

We have a decent number of friends who live off the 33rd Street PATH line, or are only one transfer at WTC, and these are both very easy trips (the train to WTC is so much faster and so much more predictable than the 33rd Street train, which detours to Hoboken late-night, that a single transfer at WTC is often easier than no transfers using 33rd-via-Hoboken). For these trips, we routinely return via public transit late at night without undue problems.

If you're looking at transferring off the 33rd street line, or multiple transfers from WTC, it's a slog. For that, we usually hire a car. It's not $100 though, more like $60 + tip.

Admittedly it is a pretty fun bit when someone asks a dumb question and gets mad at the replies

ohhhh sorry - we didn’t realize you were a loser with no social life when you asked the question :/

And? The train doesn’t deposit you into your apartment…one still has to walk or possibly take another method of transit to get home unless you live on top of a path stop. Even living close to a path stop I know plenty of women who will take a cab ride home from JSQ even though they lived a walkable distance if it’s late.

It all adds up so it’s something to consider when people want to make blanket statements about the convenience of taking the path home at 3 am. Unless you live on top of a stop you’re going to also need to figure out how to get home from the station if the lightrail has stopped running.

I’ve definitely done the Uber to WTC/Christopher, PATH across the river, Uber home thing to save money before. Uber from Williamsburg home? $75. Uber to Chris St? $9. Make it make sense.

Anywho. It’s annoying, but not god awful. Planning ahead is good.

Base gym is recommended 100%. As residence of Columbus towers we do get the membership at discounted price but the classes and machines are worth it.

DM me if you want me to recommend you as I think there is a friends discount
