NJ wealth inequality existed way before Murphy. Are you saying 9/11 is George Bush’s fault bc he was in office when it occurred?

Mine's Johnny & Hanges in Fair Lawn, although when I was a kid and up until it closed it was Jimmy Jim's in Garfield. God, I still miss Jimmy Jim's...

These are not native wildflowers. This plant is considered invasive in the US, and it displaces native wildflowers that would actually benefit local fauna.

Make sure to take a good look around, the areas nearby go anywhere from 'strip mall central' to 'cul-de-sacs' to walkable little downtown and with your budget you should be able to pick which type you want pretty easily.

Hairy Bittercress is not native to the US.

Wow. I remember Caldor in West Paterson. That was the new K-Mart & pre Wal-Mart.

I work at a data center now, I like it and I'm trying to stay in that field until I've learned enough where I can move on.

Honey bees are also not native to the US, and these plants are not beneficial to the native bees who need native plants.

We're fans of dirty water style dogs so; Hanks Franks in Lodi and Mike's Dog House in Oakland

Do not take them to Plato’s Closet. They will undercut the stuff very bad while they’re selling pilled leotards. Poshmark, Depop, Mercari are nice but do require some work to sell.

Newark isn't a big tech city. Audible, sure, but that's kinda it. We have a couple of data centers but no big tech job hubs. Unless you work remote or are willing to commute into NYC, I'd hesitate. And if you are willing to work remote, there's a lot of places that are better than Newark for that.

This plant is beneficial to the local fauna of Asia where it's native. Here in the US it's just another invasive plant.

Rutt's Hut in Clifton or Johnny and Hanges in Fair Lawn depending on the level of grease I'm in the mood for.

I never said DeSantis is insane. I said the act of comparing the two is.
Edit* just to add, you typed all of that without even really reading what I typed. Kinda shows you aren't interested in a discussion, just spouting your viewpoints.

We had one come to the door saying that the power company identifies houses that produce too much pollution. If I signed up with him, their company would make sure our house was not on this pollution list.
Yeah, ok.

Newark has a reputation for being bad but the Ironbound section and sections close to the Belleville/Bloomfield border aren't that bad. Judging by what you wrote, seems like Jersey City and Hoboken may be more fitting for you.
