There are two Jersey Cities - the glittering waterfront high rise Jersey City and then there's the GHETTO Jersey City I mean SERIOUS ghetto. There is nothing affordable in the nice part and forget about any bungalow without bullet holes and crack pipes on the front lawn

Ah the frightened old white women on this forum.

There is nothing wrong with Jersey City, I've been in the residential part of Jersey City and it was perfectly FINE.

Crack? It practically SNOWS (blow, coke) in well off white neighborhoods like downtown Manhattan.

It's amazing how racists disparage the so called ghetto as being the only place where there's drugs.

Union city is very tame. It's urban though.

No racist here, I'm an equal opportunity disparager of drug addicts from the pill poppers in Chelsea and the UES, to the coke snorters downtown. In the ghetto the drugs are way more out in the open, and Jersey City is big time ghetto. That's not a statement on any race, it's a statement on a very poor area with high crime, drug use, and gang activity.

I'm sorry if you're offended by pointing out reality, but if you're so bothered about it you should do some community outreach instead of burying your head in the sand and trying to pretend everything is alright

Its not my job to do community outreach, nor am bothered when people do drugs. Which nearly all people have at some point.

Of course in your world there's no difference between taking tylenol / penicillin and snorting coke / smoking weed

Junkies such as yourself are the only ones who rant how awful it is that certain places are so full of drugs. You have an addiction problem.
