Class action lawsuit when? Don’t sign up for their credit monitoring, you’re essentially signing a non-arbitration clause at that point.

It's not like NJIT is seen as a bad school - it has a very solid reputation.

Choose the money, in my opinion, your undergraduate degree is based on your effort, your desire to succeed and maintaining that ambition as you earn your degree.

If its strictly Physiscs, then go with Rutgers. NJIT is more for Engineering. Believe it or not, we had to go across the street to Rutgers Newark for our Physics classes.

Choose the money. Undergraduate reputation means very little in most cases, and in this case will mean nothing. What you do as an undergrad is what's important, not the name of the school on your diploma.

I couldn't tell you rents as I've bene out of the renting game for a few years now but here is a website for Hawthorne Square which is on the other side of town: https://bestrentnj.com/Communities/Hawthorne-Square/?utm_source=gmb&utm_medium=organic
Hawthorne Square was built in the past five years so it's as comparable as you're going to get until the Hedges announces its pricing. I don't think Hawthorne Square has as many amenities as the Hedges will so it won't be an exact match but I think it's a good guide.

This! I know lots of families in the city who could afford to purchase in the suburbs but their living expenses would increase substantially and they wouldn’t be able to enjoy other luxuries in their current lifestyles.

Not all of Camden is horrible. There are sections safer/wealthier than other suburbs. Plus it’s central to jobs and convenient for those wanting city life without Philadelphia prices.
ShakeLost5528 t1_j8hkzx9 wrote
Cooper Grant/Lanning Square are probably the most appealing as the former is amongst the safest parts of the city and both have new modern apartments, affordable rents, and nearby job opportunities as well as quick access to Philadelphia.
Waterfront South, specifically around the Ferry Ave/Broadway corridor has plenty of better off families who run non profits and run community gardens, theaters, and parks within the neighborhood. However like most neighborhoods in the downtown/south part of the city there is a large homeless and drug problem.
Fairview is a nice choice for Hispanics who can’t afford to buy or rent in East Camden. It has multiple commercial districts, a few restaurants, and an actual grocery store which is more than most parts of the city. It’s also adjacent to Collingswood/Audubon so more shopping and nightlife is close. It’s zoned for Camden High which has been rebuilt and combined with a performing arts, medical arts, and trade school.
Stockton/Rosedale (East Camden) are nicer neighborhoods, also predominantly Hispanic, and are working class neighborhoods with pockets of middle class. They’re more family oriented with more single family homes and newer suburban-style homes. The Camden’s Promise school is located in these neighborhoods and it is the highest ranked school in the city with residents from nearby Pennsauken attending as well. The parts that touch the Cramer Hill/Marlton neighborhoods do have more crime though (mostly thefts and robberies).
Parkside, specifically between Kaighn Ave to the West, Vesper Blvd to the East, and Haddon Ave to the South has more older retirees and middle class African American families. It’s located next to the Lady of Lourdes hospital which is a nice employment hub for the city and Camden High. It also features the Society Hill development which has some of the nicest homes in the city! There’s also a new park that features access to the creek system of Camden it’s also connected to the new park in nearby Cramer Hill.
The best neighborhood will be dependent on what best suits you and your level of tolerance. Like all cities there is crime and problems in every neighborhood. Coming from Washington Heights you might be able to even move into neighborhoods not listed on here if you have street smarts and stay to yourself.

I had found a Psychiatric & Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (she can prescribe medication) that accepts Medicaid through Reservoir Health. Her name is Dr. Jacqueline Hunterton-Anderson. She’s very nice and knowledgeable. https://www.myreservoirhealth.com/
They’re not local for me so I’d use Zoom for the sessions. Most practitioners use Zoom nowadays for convenience/safety.

You realize that Google is perfectly happy to suggest like a dozen different ways of bypassing paywalls, right? It's not like you're entirely helpless here.

Camden was once voted the most dangerous city in the US if that gives you any idea.

Horrible take.
And while this article does have some reporting, I think I trust Open Space Institute's judgement that this can be a viable project more than Wheeler Antabanez and M’ke Helbing.
Notably the piece doesn't include comment / reaction to its premise from anyone at OSI or the groups that have been advocating for the project.
