Google maps is pretty accurate for public transportation and timing (set your arrive by time to roughly your work start time to get correct schedules). In general in Jersey City, the closer to the PATH station, the faster your commute, but also the more expensive your rent. PATH from Jersey City to 23rd and 6th is likely about 20 mins so it will depend on walking time to and from PATH station about your commute (and/or if Chelsea location is far enough you want to transfer to subway or bus in NYC).

I’m also a dog owner. I used to think more trash cans would help, but lately there’s been an absurd amount of household trash being put in cans near me. The trash cans have been disappearing — I guess the city is sick of them getting full and got rid of some 🤔

It’s super frustrating cuz Union City has a zillion trash cans and they’re all well cared for.

Zero excuse for folks to be lazy arses, but as also a pup owner, damn do I agree. You don’t realize how infrequent the public cans are till you’re on a walk swinging a poop bag for 4 or 5 blocks. (And it’s inexcusable to toss into someone’s private garbage—don’t do that people.) More public trash cans would be nice.

JCMC did a pretty good job with the birth of our child. Nice facilities, good medical staff, though the care staff after birth could have been better.

For non-maternity stuff, it definitely seemed like an inner city hospital, a little rough.

It’s nuts, never leave the house without bags with my dog, and love to put people on blast walking theirs with there arms swinging.

I do wonder about stray cats/raccoons/skunks, but I agree that many of the shmears can only be dog.

This also could be another issue that could be improved if we didn’t have possibly the lowest amount of trash cans per capita in the USA. Maybe these owners don’t want to carry a shitbag 4-5 blocks back to their own garbage can like I do 2x a day?
