Important as it directly /eat into/ my precious time for rest, blogging (reflection, study) and family incl. phone calls to grandparents…

How about exercise time? See time saved from commute ⇏ more exercise

— #2) well-maintained streets

It has a real impact on our sense of safety, impoverishment, life-chances.

In most district of Bayonne, there are relatively clean sections.

Clean street is more important than parks.

— parks for kids, exercise
xp: I lived in 45 Juliette for a month but didn’t have a real need to use the park. However, I tend to feel “rich” living close to a big nice park.

Grove St area has very few parks and very small, but I felt good.

— everyday shopping
drive? Yes I believe most Bayonne residents drive for everyday shopping, unless their home is really close to a major shopping district.Weekly grocery can drive for sure.

— school district
Will rent a place nearby
