Those areas are not the domain of "whites" at this time in history.

It's funny how people consider working class to be the same as poor when answering this.

I would never say that these places are "poor" but these towns median incomes are lower than state average which necessarily doesn't make the towns as a whole middle class, but more blue collar . (mainly Linden and Rahway)
Also, Linden and Union hover around 60% white. (I didn't know Rahway only had about a 50% white population)

Is Vineland more than 60% white? If it is I would be surprised.

Try Upper Saddle River, Essex Fells, look around upper Bergan county and around Long Beach Island , and some of those beach communties along the shore line*

Youll find plenty of lower middle class-> well not actually living there, but we do drive around a gawk at the homes and if lucky visit a rich white realitive for a Sunday brunch

rich in spirit

Default Where do they live?

We keep them hidden in neighborhoods all over the state, for safety's sake. If we had them all bunched up and something happened, Nj would be in a fine pickle.
