    "Pretty good but could be way better and more streamline. The train doesn’t run at the time I need it to get to Spring Valley so I take the bus which isn’t horrible but yeah you need a car because it’s super restrictive. The bus and train only go but so far."

    "It’s a nice area to raise kids. There are parks and sidewalks on most main streets. There are parts that are Main Street hustle and bustle. And also areas where it’s more quiet- it depends on where you go. But for the most part, every area of Hackensack is 50/50 In to that "
