In any big city experience, crime and safety are all part of it. If you adjust well and learn to be conscious of your environment, you'll be fine.

Definitely be aware of where you are re: flood risk. The journal square area is high up compared to surrounding parts of town, but I’ve heard you should be wary of ground level apartments closer to the river (ie downtown JC and Hoboken). Re: Crime, I walk home from the Journal Square train station by myself at night all the time. I’ve never felt unsafe.
