I need no redneck activity in my life.
Rednecks are wayyyyyyyyy down South near Vineland/Wildwood/Cape May.
The people there are very
and my boy who went stayed at a motel found quite a few Confederate flags. 
If he stays downtown and Ironbound near the PATH, he'll be fine.
As long as he stays north of Market St, he'll be fine.

- Brooklyn keeps on taking it.
What's up coli fam, I just moved to New Jersey in east ironbound, and I'll be working in midtown Manhattan. I'm 27 and travel a lot for work so I'll be going to CT, PA, DC, etc, but most of my time is going to be in NJ and NY.
I'm new out here so I'm working from a blank slate trying to get into activities and meet people and trying to make associates or maybe some friends. I don't know anybody out here, or what to get into off top, so I'm trying to be social and enjoy what's out here.
I'm in a groupme with a few NJ posters on the forum, and if any of the other NJ/NY posters have suggestions for a young business-breh who just moved, can you help out? What areas to avoid(that aren't obviously run down), what areas are good for young professionals, what gyms are good, etc?
What's the move?.
I would say the areas to avoid are mostly in the city you are in now which is Newark. NYC hoods are dead these days so you can be chill and enjoy your time anywhere in NYC just as long as you dont find problems.
As far as gym goes, it all depends on your budget. The best gyms are more expensive, and then you got the cheap ones like Retro, Planet and Crunch.
Also as a black young professional you should def spend time in areas like Harlem in Manhattan or pretty much any spot in Brooklyn except for Brownsville/East NY.
Also I like going to eat on the weekends and I would say explore all the ethic communities in Jersey and the other 4 boroughs (Aside from Manhattan) from some good well priced ethnic food.
NYC and Northern Jersey are extremely diverse and active so you'll never be bored and always have something to do.

You kill someone for a fukking Kia car
since when do car jackers care about what car you drive? Plus Kia's being made today do not look too bad at all. That new Kia Stinger looks fire.
Good stuff breh, thanks. If anybody drops in with specific places I can hit the spot up and post pics and reviews.
I don't mind rolling solo, so no doubt I'll bump into some people while I'm out here.Market street in downtown Newark is beyond dingy, I avoid that area completely.
Market St is fukkery central.
And also do NOT go anywhere near Clinton Avenue too breh.

Bases on the bolded I'll just say don't be food.
On the real though, the PATH train is your friend. Take advantage of the fact that it runs 24/7 if you hit up the city on weekends.
I took one loop around downtown Newark and that was all I needed to see.Market St is fukkery central.
And also do NOT go anywhere near Clinton Avenue too breh.
I brought my pistols but I've kept them in the apartment so far, but I keep a switchblade on me on the daily. I got a good eye for trouble and don't even get in position to be food. The PATH is cheap and takes me right to the city, I like it so far. Penn Station is a dump though.

DO NOT CARRY A SWITCHBLADE. EVER. Cops tried to give me weapon possession for a home depot box cutter, that i actually used for work, that they found in my car. Judge dropped the charge but a switchblade wont get dropped.
