Good Eye
Funny, I just posted this in another thread. I hadn't been in Perth Amboy in about 8 years until I started doing some business there last year. I can't tell you how impressed I was at the makeover that city's undergone. Smith Street has changed dramatically, the downtown is nicer and you can't even mention the Waterfront Section. The houses there are easily $700K+. I'm not trying to overstate this, but I think it's improved more than any other urban city in NJ in the last 5-10 years. The population has remained predominantly Hispanic, the cost of living is still pretty affordable and there is a train station and bus transportation. Perth Amboy still doesn't have the best reputation, but I'm telling you, you could do alot worse.
