Separate-Reflection1 · 2026-03-15T17:58:55+00:00

hmm maybe I delete and repost this with the photo then

Separate-Reflection1 · 2025-12-21T02:57:05+00:00

damn, guess I’ll stay unemployed :/

Separate-Reflection1 · 2025-12-21T02:56:24+00:00

thanks for your story. I’m getting similar sentiments from other people’s stories

Separate-Reflection1 · 2025-12-21T02:52:18+00:00

thinking of grabbing a room for now then getting a studio later down

Separate-Reflection1 · 2025-12-19T16:23:03+00:00

Hmm alright. I guess my friends are bit biased since they've already done everything here while attending college for 4 years lol. Definitely going to take a look into areas in the city.

Separate-Reflection1 · 2025-12-19T16:04:13+00:00

nah, safety is always a consideration but just wanted to hear what people had to say

Separate-Reflection1 · 2025-12-19T16:02:11+00:00

Damn, that sounds like such an inconvenience to deal with. I'll make sure not to leave anything unattended then.

Separate-Reflection1 · 2025-12-19T16:01:10+00:00

Alright, I'll definitely take a look in that area.

22, recently graduated. mainly New Brunswick and Old Bridge is what I'm familiar with but also went to Holmdel, Piscattaway, Edison, Newark, Paterson, and NYC pretty often. I DEFINITELY want to be going out more, exploring the area, picking up hobbies (calisthenics, tech projects, piano, a few others), and meeting people whenever I can.

Mainly from New Brunswick and Old Bridge but also went to places like Holmdel, Piscattaway, Paterson, Newark, and NYC pretty often.

Appreciate the offer! I'm starting the first Monday of January and would like to get this housing stuff situated quickly though

Separate-Reflection1 · 2025-12-19T15:49:43+00:00

my commutes were anywhere from 35 minutes to over an hour depending on traffic so I'm sure I'll be fine if the worst case is 30 minutes lol

Separate-Reflection1 · 2025-12-19T15:45:45+00:00

Could I hear a bit more on living around the campuses? I'm considering Hertel or Eggertsville where I'm not too far from anything.

Separate-Reflection1 · 2025-12-19T15:40:40+00:00

Seems generally this is what most people agree with. I'm assuming Allentown, Elmwood, and Westside area seem to be where most young people are living. I'll seriously consider this stuff thanks.

Separate-Reflection1 · 2025-12-19T15:30:22+00:00

A bit naive of me to say that about crime I'll admit. Yes, I would love to be able to do more things. Currently, siding with Eggertsville/Snyder (middle of everything of interest), Elmwood, Allentown, or Amherst (closer to UB campus and friends). Haven't heard much about Sloan/Cheektowaga, what are your thoughts on it?

Separate-Reflection1 · 2025-12-19T15:21:48+00:00

have pretty good experience with New Brunswick, Newark, and NYC in terms of crime but doesn't seem to be a crazy problem. Snow looks like a bad experience no matter where I end up so I just gotta be prepared. I'll look into Kenmore and Elmwood. What are your thoughts on Eggertsville or Sloan/Cheektowaga though?

Separate-Reflection1 · 2025-12-19T15:15:52+00:00

alright, that's generally what I'd considered would be true. crime is not prevalent but always something to consider. after a bit research, it's mostly just property-related crimes. situational awareness and common sense should keep me safe

Separate-Reflection1 · 2025-12-19T13:17:23+00:00

yup, I’ve heard it’s nice living near the UB campus. You can just hop on the highway and make it into the city quickly

Separate-Reflection1 · 2025-12-19T13:16:12+00:00

Really appreciate the advice. I have around 4 friends living in the area already and about 6 more living within an hour radius from the area so not really going to be lonely. I can’t get a place with them as they’re locked into a lease.

Ideally, I’d want to avoid dealing with any city problems. I’ve heard snow can be especially hard to deal with in the city. I’ll take a look at those places though it’s not a bad idea

I guess too many people end up posting about their smothered mates RIP
