Reply to comment by sweatery_weathery in To those that have lived in Jersey City or Hoboken AND Queens or Brooklyn, which do you prefer and why? by seeyam14

Well my point still stands. I live in McGinley Sq, there aren't many young single people which makes dating very hard.

Yes, there are more downtown, which is also still mostly couples.

Ah yes, I was commenting mostly on the last part (about JC being full of people moving to here from the city).

Agree that the dating scene is rough. If using any dating apps, you basically have to set a 1-2 mile radius so that you don’t get NYC. People from NYC will not take a 8 min train to JC but are fine with 30 commute to Brooklyn lmao.

yep lol it's so dumb... there really is a terrible stigma about living here, which is pretty annoying.

But people from other parts of Hudson County and surrounding counties (ex. Bergen County, Essex County, Union County, and Middlesex County) will visit you!
