Hobokenite here.

Find out how close you would be working to the Path train. If teh job is close by, you can live in JC or Hoboken easily, and get into the city 24/7 quicker than you can from the outer boroughs.

You will have to do some hunting for a good spot in JC though. there are some great spots and some crappy ones, and the prices are all over.

Hoboken has rent regulations that the realtor will not tell you, so if you look for a place there, try for one that was built before 1970. Aim for something that you can still afford, but then call up Carol McLaughlin at city hall and be really nice! She is the head honcho for the rent board and can get your place checked. You can probably get a 700sf place for under $1000 a month (although I have never seen on advertised for that.)

Glad to hear you are moving out of SUburban CA. There are so many better places to be in CA than where you are now, but I don't think you will be dissapointed with JC or Hoboken either....
