Do people in this sub really think that Hoboken can magically fix homelessness on its own ?
So many people complaining about homeless. Just because is a small wealthy city doesn’t mean it’s immune to other problems in bordering neighborhoods and cities. Do you really think that any problems affecting Newark , NYC, JC and other cities within our urban area can’t spill into luxurious Hoboken ? . Specially when it comes to housing affordability. Only way you can even start to tackle some of these issues that go beyond city limits to share policies and being all on the same page about drug and treatments for those in need.
Point is , even if Hoboken makes good policy you will never have any cohesive results. City limits are not a magical wall that stops any of our society issues.
