Escaping N.J. for PR during covid by JF214

I have spent the whole pandemic in N.J. along with my family and we are considering spending November and December at our home in PR. We have been under strict quarantine and my kids are starting to struggle. Was curious of any thoughts on what the ...

Loiza safety by JF214

I saw.a very nice looking apartment in Loiza in what looks like a decent area. But when I google I find forums with people saying it's unsafe. Does anybody who has actually spent time in Loiza have an opinion on this?

JF214

You are all so sensitive on this race thing. If the locals feel like people are afraid of Loiza bc of the amount of.blacks that's their opinion. Maybe you should consider this perspective and consider why they may feel this way. No need to act ... Read More

I agree and I have but I didn't see the not so safe looking area people have described so I was hoping someone could share their experience bc sometimes danger isn't visible. All I saw was a neighborhood, people of all ages our walking, on ... Read More

JF214

So I've talked to a lot.of people out here who all say Loiza is no where near as bad as people portray it. I've been told that in the early 2000s it was pretty bad.but now has a lower crime rate than cities like Ponce and of.course San Juan. ... Read More
