Restaurants
Tanya Zachko - Real Estate Agent
There is no shortage of restaurants in Jersey City. No matter how much you’re looking to spend, eat or travel, you won’t have a hard time finding something great. A list of every restaurant won’t help and is easy to access, but some recommendations for certain occasions might. For a nice dinner at over $25 a plate, Edward’s Steakhouse is ideal, and Azucar is great as well. For a $15-$25 meal that still has some class, Madame Claude Cafe is a wonderful French bistro, and LITM provides homey american fare and epitomizes a great restaurant view - it’s got an art gallery in the dining room! For a little less, $10-$15 a plate, Honshu Sushi is very popular. For a quick bite under $10, Ibby’s Falafel or the Brownstone Diner are worth visiting. For lunch, check out Marco + Pepe for what Zagat described as “innovative American comfort food”. There are an abundance of choices in Jersey City.
Pet Friendly
Tanya Zachko - Real Estate Agent
Pet owners looking to move or relocate in the Jersey City area can feel confident in finding a place. Those with large dogs will have a more difficult time, but it is not hopeless. Avalon Cove is a luxurious complex that allows all pets. For those with dogs that might be considered less than large, or cat owners, there is a plethora of options. Most have stipulations, such as a manager or landlord’s approval on dogs, small monthly fee, or a deposit. MyApartmentMap, under ‘show advanced options’, has a modifier to allow searches for pet-friendly apartments based on your requirements. There are always current options for available places that will welcome tenants and their furry friends.
Crime & Safety
Tanya Zachko - Real Estate Agent
Using a crime rate index where 100 represents the safest neighborhoods in the United States, Jersey City was given a score of 23, meaning it is safer than just 23% of the country’s cities. Pertaining to violent crimes such as rape, assault and manslaughter, Jersey City has an average almost twice that of the national average. A person’s chances of becoming a victim of a violent crime in Jersey City is 1 in 135. The rate of property crime, such as burglary, theft or grand theft auto, is marginally lower than the national average, but higher than New Jersey state overall, at a rate of 1 per 41 residents. In fact, most of New Jersey’s cities have much lower crime rates than Jersey City. A person’s chances of being victimized by a crime of any kind in Jersey City is 1 in 32. In spite of all of these statistics, when compared to all cities in the country with similar populations, Jersey City’s crime rates are noticeably lower than most.
