See, it's a matter of taste.
Maybe I'm too old school to assimilate to things like Pier Village.
All I can say is that of course some people will flock to something like that, 
because it's all 
they know anymore. But compared to a earlier time in our culture, Pier Village 
is an 
abomination. Nobody will ever be able to convince me that it's attractive in 
any way.
I find it sad that the next few generations will accept our strip mall culture 
and things like 
Pier Village as the best our culture can offer.
But that's just me.

 No - at least what I see. There is no draw for them. So will they be

It's destination, not for everyone. And yea, people complain who live

Just give the sand and water. No towel, No $20 lounge.

Don't forget that for years malls were the coolest thing, but plenty  
of towns are moving back to the downtown approach now.   There are  
many malls around the country that are closing or becoming different  
than they once were (see Seaview Square as a local example).


The idea of things like Pier Village may be destination bound, but it  
also could be a fad like the malls were.


And as far as people leaving New Jersey, I wonder if that takes  
account for all of the immigrants moving into the state because it  
just might balance things out.  After a short trip back to Virginia,  
I can say that from VA to NJ everything is starting to look the  
same.  There are chain restaurants, mini-outdoor malls, and  
everything wherever you go.  New Jersey is not the only place losing  
an identity.  The major chains are on a mission to remove local  
identity from the country and they are largely succeeding.


So, why are these people leaving to? I'd say for lower mortgages.
Outside our borders doesn't really offer more or look different than  
Jersey - just may be a little cheaper, that's all.

TAXES. At least you have a few years in other places, like Indiana, 
befreo all the people from NJ start bithcing they dont have garbage 
pick up or have to take their own recycling or not enough police. 

Where will we all wind up?

NJ moves to PA, PA hates NJ people, so they move to Ohio or VA or 
Upstate NY. Move to Dallas or Houston, then those people move to 
Austin.. or Mexico and the mexicans get so pissed becasue we build 
home depots and everything right across the border and move there, 
etc...

Take Tinton Falls for example.
They approved building a Home Depot in an area where there are already 2 or 3 
Home 
Depots less then a few short miles away.
Ridiculous. We don't need it, but they let it happen anyhow. 
More green space disappears with orange in it's place.
And what happened to American manufacturing. Gone. Terrible.
Recently I watched The  War on PBS and it really showed how much America has 
lost since 
then in terms of manufacturing. We taught the world how to built quality 
things, and then 
gave it away.

What doesn't  get as much play in the media is the number of people who move 
back to the  Northeast after having left for greener pastures.
 
Another matter of taste, I guess.  
 
Like my relatives who moved back to NNJ cities because  moves to  Florida, 
(then to Ocean County's retirement sterility) didn't measure up to  their 
expectations. They missed their old neighborhoods, friends, families,  and city 
services.  
 
Others I know of have moved back, or plan to, from Arizona and from Las  
Vegas.

Our downtown offers nothing for that group (people with expendable incomes).  
First we need the downtown to be open more often
