New Jersey has THE highest property taxes in the country!
I don't know where you live but everything I'd like to do is over 2 hours away so nothing but grocery stores are close.
And the beaches all have fees, they should be free!
Thank goodness they have fees ….keeps the riff raff out 😜
Excellent content sis thank you and keep going!!!👍🏾💪🏾
I like the closeness to the city, beaches and even close to mountains of PA, NY and NJ. Love it here 😊
One of the best things about NJ is it's proximity to just about anything you could imagine.
I look forward to retiring and putting NJ in the rear view mirror. But the schools are decent.
Grate video keep up the good work powerful voice
Visiting NJ, I was expecting people to be pushy and mean. Could not have been more opposite. I was pleasantly surprised to be honest.
Glad you had a good experience! Thank you for watching!
Old Bridge says, hello.
I love NJ
Me too 😊
Me as well but Ireland is my country but I don’t know if I can go home
My Italian grand mother & husband specifically picked North Jersey to immigrate to in the mid 20s. Of 8 only my dad was born in America. I lived in NJ for 56 years till insane property taxes drove me south. I grew up in the 60s & 70s it "was" a great place to grow up at the time. Jersey corrupt politics destroyed the state.
I'm glad someone notice the corruption we have on politicians and police.
Beautiful beautiful video! What do you think about Rahway NJ
Can you do a video about Phillipsburg New Jersey I was thinking about moving there ok thanks!👍🏾
On the pro side I would add diversity. You can get to know people from cultures all over the world. There are restaurants featuring many different ethnic cuisines. On the con side is crime. Some of the larger cities are run down with slum areas and high crime. There are places to totally avoid.
Thank you so much for this Video.. im an Italian raised in Newyork that now have a family, and i want to mobe in nj i hope is a better life.. id like to buy a house..
I am from Upstate New York wanting to move to New Jersey. Not sure which county to move though 🤨
Hi, thank you for the video. I’ll be moving to NJ, working at Budd Lake and looking for good area to search for apartment. Where would you recommend? Looking for town/downtown with nearby groceries, and shops. Plus point is if they are within walking distance.Female, by myself no kids.
We live in south Jersey near Philadelphia, Gloucester county. Property taxes are on par with burbs on the PA side. I like that’s it close to everything and have all the resources you need.
North Jersey is different than south Jersey(near Philadelphia). Higher housing costs, property taxes etc.
Taxes definitely vary from county to county in NJ. Gloucester, Camden, and Burlington Counties are all very close, but much different in tax rates. As whole, NJ does have one of the highest overall Property Tax rates in the country.
@@livinginnj we live in Gloucester county and taxes are reasonable. We pay $6500 a year.
@@MarcP5267 how big is your house and land?
NEW JERSEY TRANSIC IS FANTASTIC !?!?!?!?!??!?!??!?! If you live in central NJ is a nightmare. I don't drive because of health reasons. And depending on NJ Transit is just a horror.
Depending on location, obviously it varies. As whole, NJ does have one of the top public transportation systems.
@@livinginnj Have you ever REALLY looked at a NJ Transit map ? Once you get south of Rahway there's only 3 rail lines going through the entire southern 2 thirds of the state. When you look at a map, nootice where the NJ Transit logo is.....THAT'S where I live.
I would say friendliness bottomed out in NJ around 10 years ago when I was working in NYC and living in Hoboken. It seems the trash has been stomped out of there - every time I go back there, I would say facilities have been better and people have been more approachable and friendlier especially in Hoboken and Jersey City (for whatever reason, I have no idea as to why.) It's the local economy & corruption that drove me out to California (and even CA is getting on my nerves these days as well.) Healthcare? Not so much, CA & TX are way better without breaking a sweat in my experience.
The best part about the Healthcare system in NJ is the top notch facilities in the area. You are in close proximity to some of the top hospitals.
North Jersey is the ONLY place on Earth in which adults have access to 400 meter tracks.All other places have tracks attached to schools which treat all others as if they were Adam Lanzas or Sal Ramos'.Tracks are important to seniors with permanent plantar fasciitis.
I am a Veteran looking to maybe buy a home. Any tips?
Move to Arizona in a year when houses will be dirt cheap
Well. I live in New Jersey ALL my life and one thing for sure I'm definitely planning my exit strategy 🤣🤣
Honestly the only reason I haven't left is because NYC is right there, but growing up in Newark hoods... ohh, hell no!! I wouldn't even advice my enemy to live there, unless you like prostitutes sitting in home steps every morning
Funny enough at 34 I was able to buy a home but I went straight to Texas to invest. It's crazy how horrible democrats treat investors buy letting a tenant stay for almost a year and NOT PAY RENT!!
New Jersey’s politics absolutely suck. I am your Pennsylvania neighbor.
Just don’t do it people taxed to death and nothing but New York money coming in… oh and don’t forget the nonstop traffic and aggressive drivers yeah it’s not worth it.
But all those places you're talking about in New Jersey ... they're not in New Jersey ... they're all in SOUTH Jersey. There is another REAL New Jersey ... maybe two ... North Jersey, and maybe there's a Central Jersey.
@@josephbaumann292 You're right, but South Jersey is so far removed from New Jersey that ... what is it?
What is your authority to speak on this issue? Are you from New Jersey? What exit?
You do know, don't you, that in the 1980 election South Jersey voted to secede from New Jersey.
@@josephbaumann292 I shared our last communication with a friend who lives so far south in NJ that when he goes to Cherry Hill he thinks he's in North Jersey.
I also have lived in NJ all my life. Exits 14, 13A, 11, 7 & 4, and 140, 135 & 98.
Next thing you're probably going to tell me that New York City is part of the United States. Its not. Except for the Bronx its all on islands.
As for Florida, it depends on how far south you go. Go far enough and you're back in NJ & NY.
P.S.: Did some of your ancestors ever own a very well known restaurant in Newark?
@@josephbaumann292 exit 82 Toms River route 37
@@jeffgolden253 I am from Newark but no relation to anyone who owns a restaurant.
Montclair is one of the WORST places to live in NJ high property taxes!!! The worst in the state
@@purp40 thank you 😍 love you made me smile!! I’m talking about crazy crazy taxes in Montclair
I don't know about Montclair but the property values and taxes in Long Branch have gone bonkers!
@@miriamortiz9247 I wonder why?? That’s crazy
@@edelquinn3265 mostly because they are building up the oceanfront and as long as New Yorkers are willing to pay a million dollars for a 1 bedroom condo, the rest of the town will suffer too. Absolutely nothing is affordable here any more.
@@edelquinn3265 mostly greed because the properties on the oceanfront have tax abatements for many years. So the long time residents have to make up the difference. Lose, lose on all levels because it's driving long-time residents out of the state. But the government doesn't care.
The are zero pros to live in NJ. Been here 30 years and dying to leave
Then go. Why stay somewhere you hate. That makes no sense at all.
I wouldn’t say zero but if I have to live in a high cost state, it’s not my first choice.
@@markrichards6863 lol im planning on it. unless you want to give me 50k you dont have, mind your business. the state is so under water with its corruption from the Whitman era theyll never recover even with killing its citiznes with higher and higher tax increases.
@@drmahidhar1876 unless youre making 100k per person, its not affordable in the slightest. anything less than that youre getting squeezed dry by the high cost of everything.
@@vgentile5169 Wah wah wah, the corruption is worse in other places.
