Reply to Moving to JC - need advice by isabeljdt
If you're worried about things getting disgustingly expensive, then you need to stay very far away from Jersey City.

Try being accused of crimes you didn't [intentionally] commit, and see how you feel. u/trillmello97's response is perfectly okay, IMHO.

They found the perpetrator's apartment but there was no bike lane for them to park in while they arrested him (/s)

It was really bad, they never called me to train again but I wasn’t exactly excited to go back.

Wow! Absolutely devastated by this. We just learned about their ~$60 sushi for two platter that was so great outside of the lovely times we've had at hibachi...

Definitely recommend taking the lightrail to MLK stop and having a nice walk around, checking out a cafe, and there's a great burger place steps away.

yeah he fled to Kearny because he knew JCPD was hot on his tail 🙄
The point is if the situations were reversed there would be a slim chance in hell that JCPD would catch anyone during a routine traffic stop because they literally do nothing.

Oh they love giving parking tickets, justified or not. It's a separate department than the police. But God forbid the police ticket anyone blasting through red lights and stop signs or going 20mph over the limit on narrow city streets.

I should have given a little more info about Jersey City Heights-- it was its own city until the late 1800s, and it is pretty geographically separated from the rest of JC--it's up on a cliff overlooking Hoboken. It's easy to get to journal square or Hoboken. I love Central Ave, which is the local main street. It is extremely walkable with many small businesses and family owned restaurants. We are moving out of a beautiful old townhouse that is divided into two units. I personally prefer the older buildings to the new "luxury" construction. The basement one br unit in our building was rented for 1200/month, so I think you should be able to find a nicer, non-basement 1br within your price range.

Solid use of the flair. Amy was MAD she got arrested in this vid.

I understand your frustration. I do not understand why you felt the need to shit on public servants

You said you got a “No Stopping or Standing” ticket, you sure didn't do anything wrong like not reading the signs?

You may not even need to do virtual court. They instituted an online ticket dispute process and you can upload your proof along with an explanation. I have had two tickets dismissed going that route.

When an easily avoidable mistake costs me time, money and energy, I think I reserve the right to blow off steam on a Reddit post. I parked in a legitimate spot, paid and got ticketed, any normal human would be frustrated by this.

I’m just amazed that anyone in this city gets any kind of traffic/parking/car related tickets ever

No one "taxed you for existing." You allegedly did not follow the rules when storing your private vehicle in a public space. The people enforcing these rules are not "glorified hall moniters."
Either you misunderstood the rules, or the person enforcing them made a mistake. That is no reason to shit on public servants.
Have some respect.

It's 10 minutes long. If you get bored of watching this woman repeatedly try and run people over, skip to the last three minutes for her explanation to the cops.

This is my understanding as well. If your backpack, etc. gets caught on the wall, you can let go of the button to immediately stop the lift.

Reply to comment by JCwhatimsayin in New to the area. What are the best cafes in JC/Hoboken to work in (wifi, not noisy, lots of seating, etc.)? by Comprehensive_Cap436
Oh yeah. Great food, great coffee. The staff and owners are incredibly nice. It's usually.got free space to chill. A couch or two and tables. A little.busy at lunch time cuz of the courthouse but that just speaks to how good it is imo.
