Yes, Yonkers is pretty much the same as most of North Jersey except higher taxes. I would plan on buying a two family or three family home somewhere down the line. So this is why I am asking about these types of neighborhoods. And just to make a point, there is a difference between blue collar and a run down slum/ghetto.
