Reply to Ways to be apart of the community? by cgrave0480

“A part” = to be participating, or a member of.

“Apart” = separated/distanced/away from.

^Hoping the above is useful; my assumption is that you mean “a part”.

Join a gym, go to bars on sports days (Giants, Jets, etc). Theres meetups for various interests, as well

What's your take home income? That'll play a factor in to your location. A space big enough for 2 dogs will most likely be a ground floor or basement level apartment, with hopefully a shared (with neighbors) backyard.

Downtown Jersey City is fun; you’ll have access to a good number of restaurants/bars in dtJC & can be in Manhattan in 20 to 30 minutes, and then you can also enjoy awesome hikes, and trails in NJ in the spring or fall. You can also have a fun beach day with your partner & dogs at the Jersey Shore in the summer.

Zillow & other apartment searching apps have a Dogs/Cats filter, but be sure to also ask the broker/landlord/management if dogs are allowed.

If you embrace diversity, you'll love JC. Amazing variety of cuisines, cultural celebrations, etc.

Also- you can use the Turo app to rent a car/sub/truck for a day or two, if you're not looking to take on car ownership

PATH app can be helpful.

For cabs; try to hail one on a street (avenues at nights are packed), and simply ask if they’re willing to drop off in JC. I’d say i’ve been told yes maybe 75% of the time. Some cab drivers have a book in their glove box that list fixed-rate prices to specific areas (downtown jersey city, airports, stadiums, etc), so they’ll even discuss & agree to a flat rate before beginning the drive which is fair for both you & the driver. You have the option to say “no, thats too high” and get out of the cab, if you need to, as well
