Jersey City, New Jersey
Facing the Statue of Liberty, a city of rail yards became a city of towers and newcomers
Jersey City is the second-largest city in New Jersey, on a peninsula between the Hudson River and Newark Bay directly opposite Lower Manhattan. The 2020 census counted about 292,000 people, one of the most ethnically diverse populations in the United States.
The Lenape lived on the peninsula they knew as part of their homeland before the Dutch West India Company granted land here as the patroonship of Pavonia in 1630. Conflicts with the Lenape destroyed the early farms, and the Dutch then laid out a fortified village on the high ground inland. The masthead year is 1660, when the director-general of New Netherland chartered the village of Bergen, the first municipal government in what became New Jersey; Bergen Square, in the Journal Square area, marks its centre. The waterfront settlement at Paulus Hook was the scene of a Revolutionary raid in 1779, and in the nineteenth century the town incorporated as Jersey City and swallowed Bergen and its neighbours. Railways ended at its piers, where passengers and freight crossed by ferry to Manhattan, and the city filled with Irish, German, Italian and Polish workers.
Jersey City covers a narrow peninsula with the Hudson on its east side and the Hackensack River and Newark Bay on its west, with Hoboken to the north and Bayonne to the south. The waterfront facing Manhattan, from Newport through Exchange Place to Paulus Hook, has been rebuilt since the 1980s as a district of office and apartment towers, among the tallest in the state. Behind it, Downtown's nineteenth-century brownstones and row houses spread west towards the Palisades ridge, where the Heights look down over the city and across to Manhattan. Journal Square, with its PATH station and old movie palaces, is the commercial hub of the centre; Greenville and Bergen-Lafayette lie to the south; Liberty State Park, on reclaimed rail yards, faces the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island across the harbour.
Jersey City has been an immigrants' city for two centuries, and is now one of the most diverse in the country, with large Indian, Filipino, Egyptian, Dominican, Puerto Rican, Chinese and Korean communities alongside older Irish, Italian, Polish and African American families. Newark Avenue near Journal Square is known as India Square, one of the largest South Asian commercial districts in the country, and Filipino businesses gather on the west side. The Colgate clock, once on top of the company's factory and now on the waterfront, faces Manhattan across the river. Liberty State Park holds the restored Central Railroad of New Jersey terminal, where millions of immigrants processed at Ellis Island caught trains west, and ferries leave from there for Ellis Island and the Statue of Liberty. The Liberty Science Center stands in the park.
Over the past three decades Jersey City has become a financial outpost of Manhattan, with banks and back offices in the waterfront towers and tens of thousands of new apartments for commuters. That growth has brought rising rents and arguments about who the city is for, between the gleaming waterfront and the neighbourhoods inland that have seen less of the new money. In December 2019 two attackers killed a police detective and three people at a kosher grocery in Greenville, an attack treated as antisemitic terrorism. The city is crowded and busy, its PATH trains packed at rush hour, and in 2026 it shared in the World Cup through the final and other matches played at MetLife Stadium in the New Jersey Meadowlands, a few miles north.

Living Here
Getting about
- PATH trains run from Jersey City to Lower Manhattan, to Midtown along Sixth Avenue and west to Newark; Journal Square, Grove Street, Exchange Place and Newport are the main stations.
- The Hudson-Bergen Light Rail runs along the waterfront from Bayonne through Jersey City to Hoboken and North Bergen, and NY Waterway ferries cross to Manhattan.
- NJ Transit buses cover the city and connect to Newark and the rest of the state.
- Newark Liberty International Airport is about 20 minutes away by car or by PATH and AirTrain. Parking is scarce and driving into Manhattan expensive.
Health
- Jersey City Medical Center, part of RWJBarnabas Health, is the main hospital and trauma centre; Christ Hospital in the Heights is the other large hospital.
- Dial 911 for any emergency. Summers are hot and humid, and coastal storms can flood low-lying areas near the water, as Hurricane Sandy did in 2012.
- American healthcare is expensive and visitors are billed in full. Travel insurance with good medical cover is essential, and an urgent-care clinic is cheaper than an emergency room for anything minor.
Work & study
- Saint Peter's University, Hudson County Community College and a public university campus on the west side are in the city, and New York's universities are a short train ride away.
- Finance and back-office operations in the waterfront towers, healthcare, logistics at the ports, retail and government are the main employers, and many residents commute into Manhattan.
- Non-citizens need a visa or immigration status that allows work. New Jersey has a state income tax, and those working in New York may owe tax there as well.
Money & manners
- US dollars. Cards are accepted almost everywhere. Tipping of around 18 to 20 per cent is expected in restaurants and bars.
- The pace is New York's, and so is the directness. People are proud of not being Manhattan and quick to point out the better view of it.
- Summers are hot and humid, winters cold with snow and the occasional nor'easter. Housing is expensive, especially on the waterfront.
