Just had to share this story. I went out to my car yesterday, which was parked on Arlington Ave. The back window was completely rolled down. I have power windows, it had been a warm day, and I must have accidentally put down the window in the back the day before and not noticed. I had left a nice leather coat, wallet, money, ipod, expensive phone in the package I was returning to the store, etc, etc, inside the car. Stupid to leave that stuff, I know, but the point is---nothing had been disturbed! Wow--on the streets of JC, and not even the best street, no one availed themselves of an easy opportunity to reach in a car left wide open for nearly 24 hours. One of my happiest days here--and a gentle reminder to me to be more careful altogether.

Just can't stay away

I looked at a house on Arlington about 4-5 years ago before landing where I am now. There are some nice houses on that street with some great views of the city.
What I would suggest doing is going to the area at different times of day and night to see if you are comfortable with the area. Specifically, Id go by after school lets out and later into the evening and night. If you have the chance, try to go on a day when its warmer out. See what kind of vibe you get. That's really the most important thing. Good luck.

Kapplcd--there are several people that I know of on this list that are in a position to speak with any authority on your question. Others may still comment, using stories in the Jersey Journal as a basis for their response, or maybe an experience driving down some Bergen-Lafayette or Greenville street, be it Arlington or another miles away. I live a couple of blocks from your prospective condo, and I have a lot of thoughts and information about life here that I will gladly share with you. Please PM me so we can communicate more directly. I often get annoyed when I read responses to inquiries like yours because the posts usually say everything and nothing.

Your thoughts and comments are appreciated
