Not that long, up until late 80s and early 90s, that was very Italian neighborhood. And up until 2010s there wasn't as many multifamily homes and townhouses. A lot of those homes were built at the beginning of 20th century.

Now, a lot of single family homes and even parking lots are being turned into massive multifamily homes, townhouses, and McMantions.

I know this area for over 20 years. Overpopulation was never as bad as in the last 5-10 years, and judging by the new construction, it will only get worse.

im cool with that ngl. its clean, quiet, and the houses are well-kept.

i live near the NY border. most places are like that here.

exception would probably be Norwood, Westwood and Ramsey.

Lol suckers like this are why a tip screen is in your face at every check out now

I filed and recieved mine very quickly, it’s my federal that taking long. I guess that’s normal?

Nino's in Hamilton is an excellent Italian bakery.

Between $3-5 depending on how far it is. The only time it’s going to be more than $5 is if you’re bringing multiple things and you can’t carry in one trip to the door

This topic is always a magnet for idiots who like to pretend they tip $20 for take out lol

TBH I’m feeling pessimistic about it. I don’t think we’re getting any snow storms, no snow days, just occasional flurries or maybe a squall but that’s it.

Lol god this sub is hilarious

At security 1.5 hours for domestic, 2 for international. You can probably shave another half hour if you feel really ballsy/have tsa, but you’ll def be safe with 1.5/2. I travel regularly, never been an issue.

Eat Gud in hamilton! They have this spinach feta cheese pastry that is to die for

Passaic has a lot of Mexican restaurants, and a few Peruvian ones as well.

For Mexican, try Los Arcos. For Peruvian, try Griselda’s or El Chévere.

Nothing fancy, but good food overall.

My wife flies A LOT for business. We live 15 min from EWR. I go in smoothly and exit easily.

I tell her to let me know when she’s at baggage claim so I’d leave and pick her up perfectly without being told to leave by the cops.

50000000x better than Logan Airport (Boston)

Honestly it’s worse cause there’s no central downtown, it’s just suburban sprawl divided by a bunch of shitty looking strip malls

That very much depends where because there’s a lot of red neck meth shacks up there too.

Took nine days for mine

The side of Passaic and Clifton near 3rd ward has always been nice and very Jewish for a long time now. Lots of big old $$$ houses there. It cuts back over to being Passaic really fast tho.

Just drove to FL -

Let it snow, Let it.snow, Let it snow !!!

It is so confusing. I fly in a couple times a year. I need to head west on 78 and I swear I’m going in every possible direction before I get to 78 and then there’s a sudden left exit-only down to Newark. I’ve done that a few times also.

I went to Boston University then RVCC then Rutgers for undergrad and graduate school. I finished with $110k in student loan debt. Nearly all of it was HESAA NJCLASS loans at astronomical interest rates.

I was paying over $1k a month and eventually refinanced through SOFI to get my monthly payments down. In 2016 I had to put them in forbearance after losing my job. I decided to start my own business but it took me awhile to get back on my feet and after a year of forbearance they were about to continue payments, which I could not pay. I basically told them if we don't settle I'd file for Chapter 13 bankruptcy and you'd have to deal with chasing me for the next 10+ years to recoup it all.

They agreed to settle for $60k on a $100k balance and I took out a different type of loan with a much lower interest rate. Still pay $500+ a month but not to them! Small W. Fuck NJCLASS.

why does the entirety of Wayne get the woods label? its just your standard NJ suburb.

Add in LGA, possibly the only major airport in the US without a rail connection.

> and/or let it go,

My doctors treated me for mono for six weeks before they realized it was actually Lyme disease. Oops. In their defense it was the early 90s

i wouldnt, although there are certain neighborhoods in ringwood , wanaque, and w. milford that have some nice homes.

Also dont forget the lone star tick whose bite carries the chance for a a permanent meat allergy
