Reply to Crosswalk Laws by manawydan-fab-llyr

NJ is insanely bad with this especially in our urban areas like Newark and Jersey city. Meanwhile I’ve been in much less dense/urban areas of other states (particularly California) and they’re much better about stopping for pedestrians

Reply to TN teacher NJ apartment hunting by gmoor90

Hey, I'm happy to see you accepted a teaching position since we last spoke! Echoing what others said below to try to find someone who owns an individual property as opposed to a complex. New Brunswick and Piscataway are good bets since they're college towns. Look for Middlesex County groups on Facebook as people will often post there. Even if you do end up in a larger complex, mentioning that you're a teacher usually has some type of perk. My husband was able to get our security deposit down to $250 since we were renting in the town that he works in.

Reply to comment by Thisismypasswprd in Joker filming by Anxious-Energy292

That’s really cool! My oldest son took a film/video editing course throughout his 4 years in High School, but after graduation he decided that working with his hands (plumbing, carpentry, etc) was more his style.

Do you know of any websites or Twitter/Facebook/etc accounts that regularly update what, when & where filming is taking place in the greater NJ/NYC area? There was a NYC Filming Twitter account I used to follow a while back, but whoever was running it stopped posting. It’d be awesome to have a resource like that, whether it’s to avoid an area due to traffic or scope it out from a distance (so as not to disturb the actors & crew).

Reply to NJM car insurance worth the switch by Cashneto

I have had NJM since 1989. They are probably the best company I've ever dealt with on any level. Not sure where the bad reviews could have come from. I find it amazing that there's still a company where when you call, you get a human picking up the phone right away.
