I have a Bussiness trip to New York City next week. I'm planning on driving to Asbury Park, parking my car for 4 days and taking the train to New York City. How safe is the area to park my car for 4 days? Would I be better off parking at a different train station? If so, which one?

Thank you.
To me, Belmar,Spring Lake or just take a cab to the station.
I only picked Asbury Park because the ticket office is open until Noon and it has ticket machines I beleive. Any station on the northern line would be fine, but most of them don't have ticketing offices/machines. What's teh best way to obtain a New Jersey transit ticket to New York? Does any New Jersey Ticket office sell tickets? Could I buy a ticket for Belmar or Spring Lake in Atlantic City?
You can't park overnight in Asbury anywhere near the train station. It's mostly 2 hour parking and/or it's metered. The station parking is 24 hours. You can usually get a way with a day and a half but after 48 hours you will get towed.
I would look into parking in Bradley Beach. Park a few blocks away and make sure you check the borough websites about overnight parking rules. Allenhurst would actually probably be easier. I used to live in the apartments at the corner of Page & Spier. I commuted to Manhattan so my car would sit there M-F. There were some weekends when it didn't move either. Now that I think about it, if a cop ran the plates it would've come up as being from a town 7 miles away (my parents house). I never got so much as a parking ticket.
I'm pretty sure that all of the stations on the line have Ticket Vending Machines now. There's no need to go to a ticket window. If you're worried you can always buy your ticket in Asbury then drive up to Allenhurst.
