Any one here that lives in Union,NJ? Looking to move there and looking for some feedback on life there.

You can also go a bit further north (Fort Lee, Cliffside Park, etc) or an area like Lyndhurst which is a straight shot via bus/train. All much nicer than Union and cheaper than JC.

i live kind of close to there. if you’re trying to be in close proximity to the city, i think there are better options

Better options as in? It comes at a price too? I was looking at JC & Harrison but they are too expensive and having a car makes it more difficult

I grew up in Union. great little town but depending on your current lifestyle might not be the place to live in just yet. (ex: single, no kids and works in NYC)

Most probably couple of times a month mostly weekends (lets say 1 day a week on weekend)

You may eventually wanna move to Jersey City downtown or Hoboken for a few hundred bucks and much better life and commute

I am in Union City, the apartment is called Altessa

I like the company and my colleagues to be.

Good offer?

I’ve been on my job 16 years and been in a very toxic work environment over 3 years now. I find that some unions make things hard just to do it. I am very burned out and tired of a toxic work environment. Is private sector a bit different? I've considered that!

My bonus this year was patently absurd, so I used a bit on some heat: AMM 3s, Parra Air Max 1, and the black Union 4s. Hate to let the resellers win. But at the same time I worked my ass off and wanted some kicks lmao
