Hoboken Reviews
Rating 4.49 out of 5 49 reviews
I enjoyed the traffic regulation to prioritize walking pedestrians, and I enjoyed having everything being in walking distance since I did not have a car. Everything was very convenient by means of transportation and businesses.
The best place to live in the NYC area. Has very easy access into the city via the PATH or the bus which makes it great for commuters who want to live in a dense, urban and walkable city without all the chaos of the big city. The views of the Manhattan skyline are unbeatable and the city has a lot of food and nightlife options for the younger crowd. I moved here from Brooklyn and haven't looked back.
The reviews im seeing are overwhelming positive, and while in post aspects, Hoboken deserves the praise, one glaring flaw that isn't being addressed is the inconvenience of getting really anywhere outside of Hoboken. The path train is the one I see everyone mentioning, but unless you live in the Southeast corner of the city, the path is more than 15 minutes walk away. Making it super inconvenient. Really the only other option is the 126 bus. Which is the ONLY bus that runs through Hoboken. It goes into port authority but takes forever because of traffic in the tunnel and ends up taking 30 minutes just to go across the river. Parking is impossible just like anywhere in NYC but this time you have to rely on your car so it becomes an absolute pain. Transportation could really be improved. Because at any time of day it's a Hassel to leave Hoboken, and with the rent prices, that's just unacceptable.
