I felt unsafe in this area almost every day that I lived here. People tried to break into our house three times. We moved, eventually.

There isn't much to eat around here. I have to take the car and drive for at least ten minutes before I get to a nice place to eat.

There aren't an employers in my neighborhood. It's a sort of shady neighborhood where I don't walk around outside very much. There is more employment in the ironbound, which is nearby, but it is hard to find a job due to the high level of immigrants willing to work under the table.

It's a great balance of warmth in the summer and cold in the winter. Some snow in the winter, but it's nice to have a school day off sometimes.
