Downtown Jc is verywalkable, I walk or bike everywhere. It’s not nyc, but it’s more of a home, and it’s super walkable, more than essentially any other place in America except other city centers. Great place to live. If you want nightlife two blocks away it’s not nyc. If you don’t need that it’s better IMO. If you want to b more in the center of specifically nyc then you are not going to get that.

But it checks north east walkable city vibes. So much so that when I go visit Florida or CA I am annoyed that I can’t walk places.
