Things don't change overnight.
New Jersey used to be a major economic hub in the US. Now it's a state with corruption, high taxes, low quality of life and a net migration out for a long time.
Nothing says it can't happen here. Hell, SF lost like 20% of it's population between 1950 and 1980.
- caddemon 4y agoNew Jersey is basically just the suburb of two different cities. The NYC suburb side of it seems very high QoL IME, and while expensive it's substantially cheaper than trying to live in a Bay area suburb. NJ is also dense AF for a state still, so I'm not sure I'm worried about the supposed emigration.
