Hoboken, New Jersey
The city today is known for its excellent views of Manhattan, its fine-grained street grid, its historic architecture, and its restaurants and bars.   A car is more of a hindrance than a help in getting around, and people do a great amount of walking.  On weekend nights the town swells with young partygoers from nearby New Jersey towns who practice a rowdier style of barhopping than is fashionable across the river in Manhattan.  Sundays are quieter.
