Give your requirements, Newark would be the best candidate
- EWR close by, with public transportation connections
- Strong local universities, both in tech and business (Rutgers, NJIT, Stevens)
- Newark development is rising, downtown is still relatively sparse
- Audible is already in Newark
Skeptical it will actually happen though. Wouldn't even consider myself a fan of Newark (even though I go to school here), but it's interesting that it's the smallest city on the list population wise.
- wbl 9y agoColumbia and NYU and Cornell Tech don't make the list? Newark is a borough.
- gjmarsh 9y agoAgree. I work in the area. Beyond universities, the amount of talent that goes through Newark, from NJ suburbs into NYC, every day is incredible. I would think many of those people would love to shave 20-40 minutes off their commute and stop paying city taxes.
- nerfhammer 9y agoah but then the commute is dramatically worse for people living in LI or CT, cutting you off from that labor pool.
- ravitation 9y agoNot to mention Princeton is less than an hour away too.
