Edison is a good area. It has a multitude of good people from India.

Some people get confused between Union City, and Union County....

Maybe you can go volunteer at a homeless shelter or soup kitchen, or meal truck instead of living in fear?

If she is a woman, she better have some fear on her.......women are disappearing constantly, raped, or robbed......any woman that does not have fear in today's society, and takes unnecessary risks, is a FOOL.....

Unless you have maps that are vastly different from my maps, there is no portion of Plainfield that is "above" Route 22. If you take a careful look at those maps, you will see that what I stated is correct.

It seems to hold true for most places, particularly the north east part of the state. People with money tend not to live near people who don't know how to behave.

However, South Jersey has plenty of poor parts with relatively low crime.

There you go. The good part of Plainfield is in Watchung.

Well, whatever that section near 22 is called.......the TOWN of Plainfield was very, very close to a GHETTO
then......I worked for the Union County Psychiatric Clinic, myriad of years......they broke into my automobile several times, in daytime....... that was when they were located at 1358 South Avenue, and none of the Clinicians wanted to work late at night. the Clinic has moved from that area, to 117 Roosevelt Avenue......I no longer work there.
