I am moving to jersey city in a few weeks, buying a condo there. It's located on Crescent Avenue between Astor Place and Communipaw.
I've never lived in Jersey city before and don't know the area at all.
All the internet searches i've seen are frightened me a little bit. If anyone is living there, can you please tell me if the place really is dangerous, would i have trouble walking my dog around at nighttime, getting home from the Path, which is a 20/25 min walk away.

Any suggestions would be great. Thanks
Run do not walk do not pass go...run from that condo. Hopefully you can still get out of the deal
Did you go and look at this area first..during the day and at night???
Terrible choice.... Too expensive for a neighborhood that will not thrive or have resale value anytime soon. Very offerpriced in any of the areas worth living.
Don't buy it!! Comunipaw is def not a good area, right around the corner is ocean ave!!! I have actually had a police officer tell me if you're on ocean ave run every red light
I had family who lived on Astor. We were always terrified to get out of the car. And I lived in Jersey City a few years ago, but when I moved there, I made sure I avoided that area.
Tommy, if memory serves me correct isn't Lincoln HS some where in that area
Yeah, Lincoln's right there.
Sadly, that entire area of JC is bad bad bad. I do NOT see it improving in any of our lifetimes. This is why I repeatedly only recommend Downtown JC on this forum...it's like night and day compared to the rest of the city.
