Living In: New Jersey—Get to Know 10 Towns Featured by the New York Times

If you’re looking for a new home—perhaps moving out of New York City into New Jersey—you may be looking for resources on getting to know the towns and communities across this varied state.

One resource we like to browse is the “Living In” column from The New York Times. This column profiles metro-area communities across New Jersey and New York.

Why is Jersey City on the Rise? Fast Development and Great Amenities

A recent New York Times article describes the recent boom in development and growth across different neighborhoods of Jersey City. Apartment construction has been strong for the last several years.

Likening it to the growth and transformation of Hoboken before it, the article quotes Danny Harrison, a Jersey City resident and VP for real estate at B&D Holdings. Harrison says, “In my opinion, Jersey City downtown is only two to three years away from becoming Hoboken.”

It’s no wonder that many ex-New Yorkers and young professionals seeking to live near NYC are choosing this bustling area to move to.
