That's understandable. However, the desire to live in cities changes in many people as they get older, get married, and raise children. At that point, they have to go somewhere. And NJ is no worse a choice than Long Island, Westchester, and etc. And as Tom pointed out, those aren't convenient either. You really can't compare a subway system to suburban rails anyway. I don't see them as the same animal. Even the Metro, which I've already spoken well of, has limited suburban stops. Can anyone cite me an example of good public transportation *into* a metropolitan area?
