Bruh I really appreciating you spitting mad factoids. Keep it up. You might be the best commenter so far gif

Also, the people who talk about the jobs in NYC despite NJ having plenty of white collar jobs (and you can live under 10 minute drive to them).

Not true. The number of white collar job opportunities in Manhattan dwarf NJ in law, finance, hospitality, advertising, marketing, social media and dozens more. I tried many times to find jobs in NJ in my field and never found one.

Do you think people really want to commute to NY every day if there were opportunities in NJ? I hated commuting but would have been significantly underemployed if I didn’t.

NJ needs to do like Connecticut and attract those high paying jobs. In 2017 I had to take a CT commuter train from the east to Stamford to catch an Amtrak during the AM rush hour. My trains was packed leading into Stamford and then empited out at Stamford despite the next stop being NYC. All the trains did this, going to NYC at maybe 10% capacity if that
