Overall, Hudson county is more like the 6th borough of NYC. You can take it further and say North Jersey is the 6th borough lol. I'm a J.C native. Any of the towns in Hudson county are over convenient and super condensed. It's sad how the towns seem to cater more to New York more then it's natives.
Yo this is pretty nice, I'm not in the market for moving but your videos about the different neighborhoods are really quiet good. I live in middletown but love to explore the state.
Thanks for watching and commenting. Please keep us in mind when you decide to make a move. (I can also help in NYC as I am licensed there as well!) Stay well!
The New Yawkers moving to Jersey City are from Kansas and will eventually move to Montclair before retiring to Delaware or South Carolina and going full MAGA.
My mom grew up in the Heights and my dad grew up in Greenville. Greenville was a nicer neighborhood when my dad grew up in the 1940s/1950s. It got pretty sketchy by the time my grandmother sold her house on Pamrapo Ave in 1990 (it got broken into twice).
As a former resident of Jersey City, I really appreciated the detail put into the video and the variety of fantastic restaurants and stores you mentioned. However, I do believe that it is a crime against humanity that you didn’t mention Taqueria Downtown. It is the BEST authentic Mexican food in New Jersey, on par with Mexican food you can get in Mexico itself. I’ve tried Orale before, and just like every other Mexican restaurant, they drown everything with cheese and goop-not real Mexican food! Anyway, thanks for mentioning Choc-au-Pain and Razza-great food for both.
Let me know if you have any questions about the town or real estate! My goal is to add a new video showcasing Liberty State Park and the Port Liberte Neighborhood to the south. Enjoy your visit.
I do something called “grocery shopping” which allows me to cook at home. If I’m not interested in gaining 30 lbs from eating at all of these places, are there any grocery stores around?
Of course lots of good grocery shopping. Depending on the neighborhood you have Shop Rite, Stop and Shop, Whole Foods, Key Food, and Acme, also bigger places like BJ’s and Target. Plenty of smaller places here and there as well. Thanks for watching and pointing out my missing info. Are you thinking about moving to the area?
@@LMiraculous It is in New Jersey and is its own municipality, but it has great proximity to NYC it is an extension of the wider NYC area with awesome shops and restaurants!
It’s actually an insult to call Jersey City the 6th Borough, though it’s a fair point. Way too much has taken place and it’s become NYC and not in a good way. Can’t blame the many, many longtime residents that left
To be fair I did, put a "?" but honestly, the entire NYC metro area (which spans from parts of CT in the east to parts of PA in the west) is an economic behemoth all stemming from the central business district that is Manhattan and parts of the Outer Boroughs. To say that Jersey City is thriving on account of NYC's lack of housing options and expensive commercial office space seems like a good thing for JC / NJ overall. So seems like a positive thing to be included as a "Borough."
No, don’t come to Jersey City because it’s close to New York. The city has been hyper-gentrified and economically segregated by a partnership of steven fulop, the planning board and developers. This is just more gentrifier propaganda for realtors and developers.
Hi Ihor, 2 Bedrooms near the marina's close to the Morris Basin Canal, have sold between $810,000 and $975,000. They all had 2 baths. In terms of the Capital Area, what do you mean? Closer to Exchange Place? Feel free to reach out directly so we can discuss in further detail. Thanks, Jeff
I’m in the JSQ area now but I’m thinking about moving to the west side? I know that area is about to explode so I want to get in before that happens. Do you know anything about the bay front redevelopment?
Hi Tameisha, I don't know too much about the Bay Front Development, but the renderings look really cool. Guessing it will take several years before it gets to the full build out. Please get in touch if you need help with your move! Stay well, Jeff
Jersey city is a beautiful town. I go every weekend and enjoy the nightlife. They are building up journal square as well. Soon it will look like downtown. There’s a reason why so many NY’ers are crossing the Hudson 😎
I like Taqueria on grove st. They have the best tacos on the east coast. I enjoy going to one exchange place (rooftop). They have have beautiful views of the JC and NY skyline. I also enjoy Ashford located in down JC. Perfect place to bring a date or meet people. It’s vinbrant and the vibe is cool. There’s so many awesome spots that JC has to offer.

Jersey City IS a suburb of NYC
Great, more rich New Yorkers driving up rents here in New Jersey. 😕
6th borough? 😂 JC just has a great view of our Front yard. Manhattan is NOT all of NYC. Manhattan is just where you work.
Thanks for the video, Jeff. I'm moving to Manhattan/Brooklyn or Jersey City when I retire. I'll keep you in mind when that time gets closer.
Awesome, we are here to help! In the meantime let us know if there are other neighborhoods / areas you would be interesting in seeing on the channel.
Must have one hell of a pension to live in this area on a fixed income
THE YIPPIES WHO MOVED TO JERSEY CITY AND HOBOKEN ARE MOVING BACK TO NYC,AS THE RENTS ARE CHEAPER IN NYC,,,BYE BYE
Haha. Not quite

Jersey City is so cool 😎 too bad it done got too expensive for me
Yes, getting pretty expensive. Not a lot of availability! Do you have a favorite spot in JC?
@@Jeff-Suburbs-of-NYC mine is newport
@@rituwebpro I like Newport too, nice to go to Battello for the view!

Great video. I grew up in Jersey City.
Hi G.A.W. Jr. Thank you for pointing that out, it was a typo from copying and pasting! I have now updated. Thanks again!!
Bro.. the spinning camera is too disorienting.
This video really should be titled Living/ Moving to Downtown Jersey City.
agreed because there are so many more neighborhood. this bothers me when the downtown is the focus of videos like this. so misleading
They call JC Lil Brooklyn
Hoboken toook the place of 6th. JC is the 7th borough.
Hoboken is all residential.
Downtown JC has high rise office buildings
Don't forget to tell them to move on ocean ave and mlk show them the ghetto side of this city

Great point, I should have included that spot! Thanks for watching and commenting!! What part of JC do you live?
Cool video. Really enjoyed it. Been to New York a lot but never stayed anywhere but manhattan. I’m sold for this area next visit

I wanna move to jersey city
Exciting!
@@Jeff-Suburbs-of-NYC jersey city is like New York City?
@@LMiraculous It is in New Jersey and is its own municipality, but it has great proximity to NYC it is an extension of the wider NYC area with awesome shops and restaurants!
The sixth borough could actually be Staten Island. Jersey City is way closer to Manhattan than Staten Island is.
Interesting point! And much faster to get to with the PATH or the ferry or even DRIVING, haha!!
Staten Island is one of the five boroughs already
@@AnonURnotexactly
@@AnonURnotis it really?

Long time residents were forced out due to outrageous property taxes

Yes. They should have left all of those old and dilapidated warehouses downtown
✨️Excellent✨️
Everybody is going to Jersey City with the skyline in summer 2024!🗽🗽🗽🗽🗽🗽🏙🏙🏙🏙🏙🏙🧳🧳🧳🧳🧳🧳
Do you know the range for 2bdroom condo to buy in the "Capital and Marina" area ?

I like two boots pizza. Best salads! I live on W. Side near Lincoln park and really like it. Thanks for doing this informative video.
Hi MC, thanks for sharing! Two boots is a great option. What would you say is your favorite place to go out for a nice dinner? Best, Jeff
