I never said Union did not have problems. I am just saying it is overall a solid town its still a distinct step under other racially integrated towns (West and South Orange, Maplewood and Montclair) but it is by no means a bad place to live. In most parts of Union I would feel just as safe walking around at night as I would in any other good town.

no of course not, I feel personally that linden is alot more dangerous than Union. Who said rt.22 is where the crime happens lol Ive walked up and down that for like eight years at all hours and ive never seen anything, however I did hear of a shooting once but that was during a car chase |

Outside of about an 8 block radius, JC isn't that bad. I'd defintely put Paterson and Asbury Park worse than JC.

Gonuts, can you add another class in there to your list, name it 'zero' (or even lower), and put Blairstown in it?
