This whole Hackensack, Englewood, Teaneck, ect being "ghetto" bit is getting reallllllllllllly old.
Go spend a few hours strolling through West New York or Brownsville in Brooklyn, then come back and tell everyone how ghetto those towns are and how scared they should be of all the people driving pre-owned cars.

But there are BLACK people there!!! Isn't that a synonym for "ghetto"?

Cackle. My friend's sister, who grew up in Kearny then married into money and is now a first-class, affected snot, was telling us one day how she and her husband bought their daughter a car, but that it was "Really really OLD". It's a 2005. I drive a 2001 Jetta. And she's sitting there spouting this nonsense in front of me.
She also visited her own sister, who lives in a 55+ community in Toms River, and loudly warned her children to lock the car doors, because "we don't know what kind of people live around here." Yes, you do. Your SISTER, her HUSBAND, and their 55+older neighbors, all just waiting to break into your frikken car and steal your radio.

Yeah, I can just see my 90-year-old grandfather (who lives in a 55+ in Toms River also) with a brick in his hand ready to smash the window so his partner "Light-Fingered Ethel" next door can slip the stereo out.
I live in Fort Lee, its pretty safe.... the youth is not dangerous lolz. Its just the teens and middleschoolers roaming around the community center, parks, rite aid, etc. Im a 6th grader here and my friends or any other highschoolers and middleschoolers I know never hurt anyone. We're just bored and don't have any money to go elsewhere haha. Fort Lee is a safe place especially for young kids, I've been all around the nieghborhood without an adult and nothing has happened, and I've been doing it for a while. Highschoolers I know tell me to be careful about the drivers, but thats about it. The drugs here are really low except for marijuana... yeah we have some (SOME, NOT A LOT) pot smokers here. But we dont have alcoholic teens roaming the streets, we don't have any crackheads, no gangs, and its completely safe to roam freely, even for 12 year olds. I live in the old style area near Columbia Ave. and Anderson Ave, and I've been all around here. Other parts of Fort Lee I've also been, and I can say, at the very least, its perfectly safe to leave your car at night and even walk, believe me. Theres been no or very little cases here of anyone being jumped.
