Quote: "The only folks who move to Pennsy either work in the western part of the state (not bad to commute from Milford to Hackettstown) or are folks who believe that you should have a new large house on a lower middle class salary. Of course, the last group of morons whine about their 30 minute commutes and the high price of gasoline."

Yep, but the bottom line is that people are moving to Penny. The Lehigh Valley is booming, so is Bucks and many towns along the Delaware. Why, if NJ is such a wonderful place are the people moving away?

One thing is for certain, with the skyrocketing property taxes in NJ, it is difficult to retire here and it is difficult to accumulate wealth.

You totally don't get it. You don't see them moving to Pittsburgh do you? Know why? Cuz a 10 hour commute to NJ would be murder! They aren't running away from NJ. They are expanding NJ. In effect, the reach of NJ is spreading to Eastern PA. They are staying as close to NJ as possible because they work here.

Yes, but they are WAY outnumbered by the New Yorkers, immigrants and corporate relocations moving to Jersey. The folks moving to the Lehigh valley aint exactly the classiest folks in the state if you ask me (certain freepers excluded!).
