Reply to comment by sharkb44 in Does anyone any good Psychologist or Psychiatrist in the area? by MsDemiBurch

I honestly get a bit nervous when people say its just therapists & not psychologist cause I've had quite a few therapists already that i went to and they couldn't diagnose or do anything besides on asking how I was which is great & everything but i do have a support system. I just need a professional diagnosis.

I did look at the site and they did say they can do what I am looking for but I am hesitant tbh lol

I appreciate you sharing this info!

Yes. Some friends were looking in Nutley and Rutherford over the last weeks and I’m stunned to hear the stories of hundreds of people showing up for an open house and bids well above ask.

Good luck out there!!

I've lived in Nutley my entire life. My husband and I love it here. We have great neighbors, the schools are amazing, and my kids (elementary schoo agel) often come home, change, she's just run to a friends house or to they park to play until dark. We think nothing of it. It's very safe. We like the schools, the Parks and Rec does a great job with sports and other activities, the holiday events are fantastic, there are great parks and restaurants, and it's close to everything.

Here's the downside. Taxes are insane My parents own a large and gorgeous home on the opposite side of town. I'm set to inherit that house (hopefully many, many years from now), no mortgage, free and clear. We can't afford it. The taxes alone are more than my mortgage and taxes. They're really very high.

Reply to Moving from Washington Heights NYC to Camden NJ what should I know? by PositiveCapital9987

There’s no doubt that Camden has some really bad areas and crime and is impoverished but I guarantee half the people commenting are going off reputation alone and haven’t spent significant time there. “Camden is dangerous” is a local urban legend at this point (not saying it isn’t grounded in fact but just that the reputation is so entrenched it’ll be slow to adjust if/when Camden improves similar to how people living in Camden who haven’t been to NYC since the early 90s still think Harlem is terrifying). There are parts of it that are more gentrified than the Heights and other parts that are more dangerous and more impoverished, it all depends on your neighborhood.

As for advice, lock your car doors while driving there, every time.
