Chicken factory in hoboken has some insanely good soy garlic wings but I usually just make my own.

Lifelong Jersey resident. I’d recommend Metuchen, Highland Park, Cranford and the nicer parts of Piscataway for towns close to Plainfield, but would advise you to avoid the other towns mentioned.

There are many nice houses in that price range in Swedesboro or Mullica Hill. I'll send you a PM.

NYC is worlds better for stopping for pedestrians than NJ

There are absolutely better places for it than NJ though. Worse places too but we shouldn’t kid ourselves and not pretend NJ has a big problem with this, especially since we are so densely populated and urbanized.

Piscataway is a nice town, I lived there near the Dunellen border before moving to Memphis.

Loved that place. It's a shame that not only did it close but they tore the building down.

I just edited it to include more info. I’m sure you and I will find something. Apartments will really start becoming available in the next couple of months. It’s still early as people don’t move in cold weather.

Not necessarily. There are a lot of invasive weeds that'll kill other plants on your property

I just got turned down for a one bedroom garden apartment (not fancy) in Cranford, and I make 80,000 a year with great credit, the same job for 12 years and have never once in my life missed a rent payment. They said I need to make three times the rent NET which is ridiculous. The rent is 2095.00
Just glad I don’t need to move anytime soon.

Reply to comment by jdbinnj in NJM car insurance worth the switch by Cashneto
My body shop told me that NJM is one of their two preferred insurance companies (along with MetLife) because NJM/MetLife don’t pressure the shop to use non-OEM or other cheaper parts/materials. I like knowing that my insurance company isn’t trying to save money at the expense of making things right.
I also had two claims within a couple of years (hit a deer, $12k in damages; car keyed, something like $2500) - I think my premium went up like $18/year.
I’m an NJM fan.

Never answer the door unless you’re expecting someone
