About Jersey City, NJ Real Estate Market
Jersey City currently serves as a prime hub for distribution and transportation terminus for the Port of New York and New Jersey. Ever since the redevelopment of the Jersey City Waterfront happened, Jersey City became a major hub for banking and finance in the United States of America. All these developments in these years also resulted in the development of Hudson County real estate in the city.
Consisting of most of the parts of Ellis Island, Jersey City also surrounds Liberty City through its waters in the Upper New York Bay. Thanks to its proximity and easy connectivity to Manhattan, Jersey City is also considered the sixth borough of New York City. Jersey City has some of the earliest European settlements in North America, which played a crucial role in the development of various sections of the city.
