I have a 1br condo in journal square that's an old high rise from the 80s or 90s in st johns, so no abatement or any other gimmick.

property tax has been pretty consistent but i just noticed while paying 4th quarter bill, it went from ~$1000 from last year 4th quarter to ~$1200 this year, so about a 20% increase.

I remember seeing in the mail that jersey city property tax remains flat with no increase, does anyone know why the big jump.

The notion that crime has increased came came from two different liberal democrat friends of mine who live in Manhattan. They've reported anecdotally an increase number of muggings on the streets and on the subways. It's an apparent result of De Blasio releasing low level criminals from prison. One is a CFO of a small biotech start up and the other the CIO of a large law firm. The CIO has been living in Manhattan since 1978.

Because Obama did such a great job with the swine flu pandemic-not declaring a national
emergency till six months in. Cuomo, DeBlasio, and his health commissioner telling everyone to go out and about, attend the Chinese New Year parade, go to movies, restaurants, and clubs that led to NYC being the top killing zone in the US-b-b-b it?s our President?s fault?

What is in that medical journal is what schools receive all the time in NYC. My principal would display NYC health department notices all the time where the teachers picked up their mail. I have been reading about this for years. People with immune problems are the ones at risk, but who cares about them? It is more important that the left push open the borders for potential voters down the road.

you love being an idiot, carry on!

No, I love showing the hypocrisy of people like you.

you don't know anything about me. so your statement shows how empty your head is.

carry on. we all need a clown to entertain us

I actually knew elderly people who have died from the complications of pneumonia because they were exposed to an influx of illegal immigrants in their neighborhood. These were new strains found in that population. So if this virus is contagious, they it is about time this government take a look at the illegal immigrants which who brings in health problems especially in crowded communities.

Baloney about inflation, people ignore that Bush 43 and Obama, a total of 16 years, had flat economies. The fact that Social Security recipients did not receive increase under Obama is ignored. But the spending under both administrations went through the roof. At the end of 2000, the national debt was $5 trillion but at the end of the Obama Administration, it was $22 trillion. Both administrations spent through the roof.

Those monitors at Grove have been there for years.

i'm not talking about the tv monitors. it's a singular monitor that seems to be awaiting some type of signal input or something.

You?re not crazy. There are new ones they recently installed. I saw them putting in wires a week or so ago. Today, I noticed the LED screens were mounted, and operational. It was just a bunch of colors, but they were on.

so how is jersey city doing with implementing bike lanes?

there are some nice green textured ones on a few blocks of lower Montgomery and part of Columbus.

there are some more stripped/painted ones, throughout the city. But, none (or few) are connected. there are none that go more than a few blocks east/west and none from uptown to downtown (up/down the hill.)

now with Citi Bike expansion, there should be a need for a connected bike lane system. and perhaps a trial protected bike lane.
