Nestled on the Bergen Neck peninsula on the west side of the Hudson River, Jersey City has long prospered as an idyllic city for commuters — especially those who wish to be close to Manhattan without paying Manhattan’s upscale rates. Commonly known as the “Sixth Borough,” Jersey City is a thriving community offering residents both modern conveniences and major attractions.
Journal Square is the center of Jersey City, serving as the central business district and transportation hub for PATH Rapid Transit. It’s also home to retailers, restaurants, and luxury apartments. Closer to the river you’ll find trendy neighborhoods like Historic Downtown and Powerhouse Arts District. These bustling neighborhoods are home to an array of gourmet restaurants, bars, art galleries, music lounges, and the Newport Centre Mall.
Residents enjoy sweeping views of the Manhattan skyline from the east side of Jersey City.
