I suppose whether it “feels safe” and whether it is safe are two different things. As far as marginalized groups go my daughter has two good friends one of whom is of South Asian descent whose immigrant parents are university professors and one of whom is of Caribbean descent whose immigrant parents work in biotech. Their perspective and experience is enriching and additive and I’m certainly glad that no one (presumably) told them “DON’T MOVE TO HUNTERDON COUNTY!!! EVERYONE THERE IS A RACIST!!!” Lambertville and Frenchtown and to a lesser extent Clinton all have vibrant LGBTQ communities, Lambertville had an openly gay female Mayor recently and Union Township currently has an openly gay Mayor. That said…do we still have enclaves of poor ignorant white trash that like to fly their Confederate flags now and then? Sure, but their numbers dwindle everyday and quite frankly their opinions matter about as much as they contribute to society-which is nothing.
