Located about two miles from Historic Downtown Jersey City and ten miles from Manhattan, Journal Square is a centrally-located commercial and residential neighborhood that keeps on growing. Access to major highways and the PATH train as well as lower rent prices continue to attract residents from Manhattan and Brooklyn. Apartments in Journal Square are found in great pre-war buildings, walk-ups, and private houses.
If you choose to rent in Journal Square, you will have the chance to catch a performance at the Landmark Loew’s Jersey Theatre, take Fido to run around at Hamilton Park, peruse the shops at Newport Centre, and visit Liberty State Park to savor waterfront views of Manhattan, the Statue of Liberty, and Ellis Island.

The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
