Moving To Hoboken

Has the idea of moving to Hoboken, New Jersey been on your mind lately? If so, there are a couple of steps you’ll want to follow in order to properly prepare. For one, we highly recommend learning as much about Hoboken as possible. This includes learning more about the cost of living as well as the amenities you can expect from the area. Secondly, we would advise you to look into multiple moving companies so that you can find the right fit for you. After all, there are few things as headache-inducing as hiring an amateur moving company only to receive less than-quality work. The best way to avoid this is to do the right amount of  research ahead of time!

Today, Poseidon Moving and Storage wants to take this opportunity to tell you more about life in Hoboken. As the best interstate movers in the nation, we feel qualified to tell you more about moving to Hoboken, including information about our long-distance and local moving services. With this information, you’ll feel much better prepared to make the move to Hoboken with confidence! Let’s get started.

When moving to any new area, it is essential that you do your research. Not only will learning more about Hoboken ensure that it’s the right place for you, but it will tell you more about what you can expect upon moving there. Our movers have years of experience helping people like you make the move to Hoboken. In that time, we’ve learned a lot about life in the area. Using this knowledge, we have compiled a list of some of the best reasons for moving to Hoboken. With a population of 51,763 people as of 2020’s estimates and many people choosing to move there each year, you may be wondering why Hoboken is so popular. Let’s find out!

One of the best reasons to move to Hoboken is actually found in the area’s cost of living. With the area’s young crowd and relatively high average income, living in Hoboken’s real estate is still considered relatively expensive by national standards. That being said, moving to Hoboken can translate to a huge savings in rent- depending on where you’re moving from.

According to RentCafe, the average rent in Hoboken is roughly $3,500 per month. Compared to the average rent price in Manhattan ($4,200 per month) this is a huge savings opportunity. Better yet, however, it is possible to find apartments for even cheaper when moving to Hoboken. In fact, you can find one-bedroom apartments in Hoboken for $2,500 per month or less. That’s why so many people consider Hoboken a more affordable NYC neighborhood as opposed to just a small city in New Jersey!

Another great reason to consider moving to Hoboken is the city’s thriving dining and nightlife scene. Believe it or not, Hoboken has more bars per capita than New York City itself! You’ll find great live music playing on almost any night in Hoboken. There are plenty of great dining establishments to explore when moving to Hoboken. Some of the most popular restaurants in Hoboken include La Isla, Fiore’s Deli, Luke’s Lobster, and House of Que. Be sure to check out these popular spots on your few days in Hoboken!

It should also be noted that it’s beyond easy to get around when living in Hoboken. Not only is Hoboken known for being extremely walkable but there are also plenty of public transit options. Instead of hailing a taxi or ridesharing, why not jump on “The Hop,” the free community shuttle bus service featuring stops within two blocks of nearly every resident in the city. You’ll be happy to hear that you definitely won’t need a car upon moving to Hoboken, and yet, getting around will be much easier than you could have possibly imagined!

If you have a family, Hoboken has two distinct advantages to offer you: great schools and really safe neighborhoods. When moving to Hoboken, you’ll have the choice between charter and traditional public schools. This gives you the freedom of choice in terms of what kind of experience you want for your child in terms of schooling. According to the New Jersey Department of Education, Hoboken’s high school graduation rate is nearly 90%, significantly higher than New York City’s 2018 graduation rate of around 76%.

Finally, some of the most popular neighborhoods in Hoboken include The Heights, Journal Square, The Waterfront, and Paulus Hook. Each of these neighborhoods are safe and offer something special to the residents that live there. You’ll find the perfect neighborhood for you and your family upon moving to Hoboken.

Now that you know more about what life is like in Hoboken, we hope you’re feeling more prepared to move there.

Our team of long-distance movers has the licensing, insurance, and training you can rely on. Best of all, we offer affordable, budget-friendly pricing that won’t burn a whole in your pocket. We know that a long-distance move is already a stressful experience and we don’t believe in adding to that stress by demanding outrageous moving rates.

So what should you be looking for in terms of a long-distance moving company when moving to Hoboken? Firstly, we believe that you should thoroughly research the background of any moving company that you consider. This involves identifying how many years they have been in operation as well as whether or not they are licensed and insured. Secondly, you should read over their customer reviews. If you notice that several customers had a bad experience with a company you are considering, you can rest assured that you’re likely to experience something similar. Each of these factors will help you make the best decision concerning the moving company you hire. A long-distance move is considered, by many people, to be one of life’s more stressful events. Make sure you have a team of long-distance movers you can rely on when moving to Hoboken!

Now that you have a better idea of what to expect from the long-distance and local moving services here at Poseidon Moving and Storage, we hope you’re feeling more confident about moving to Hoboken. If that’s the case, however, we have a couple of useful moving tips that can simplify the process even further for you! Here’s what you should keep in mind as you prepare
to move to Hoboken.

Firstly, we highly recommend starting early when it comes to looking for affordable apartments in Hoboken. Because Hoboken is such a small city (as well as one that is so popular among commuters), it is crucial that you give yourself plenty of time to find a new place that is well within your price range. If you find that you need help finding the best option for you, we highly recommend speaking with a qualified New Jersey real estate agent. They’re sure to be a great help!

Secondly, we recommend doing a trial run in terms of your commute time when moving to Hoboken. If you’re seriously considering moving to Hoboken and commute time is a huge factor for you, you should remove the guesswork entirely by doing a trial run. While it may seem tedious to go out of your way to test your commute time, it would be much worse to discover that your commute time is much longer than expected after you’ve already committed and moved to Hoboken! Make things easier on yourself by planning ahead. Good luck!
