NJ has so many celebrities. Alpine, NJ, alone, is home to hundreds of celebrities. LI has celebrities as well. News flash, both NJ and LI are going to be home to many celebrities, because of the proximity to NYC. But it really doesn't matter. Why are we basing our analysis on how many celebrities live somewhere? It's really silly.

This whole celeb thing is pretty pathetic. "I lived where he/she was" I mean really? Does that really make a place better? It just means you were in a rich area.. whoop de doo. Rich necessarily doesn't mean better.

I grew up in a neighborhood where Joe Pesci, Queen Latifah, Kat deluna and The Fugees grew up. I went to Whitney Houston's church a few times, she was there once.
I mean seriously, i can play the celeb card all day... so it's ridiculous to bring up the stupid celeb crap

I can't believe some of you guys are basing whats better, over celebrities. WHO CARES what they are doing, eating, having sex with, vacationing. What does that have to do with your life?

Wait, so population statistics are opinions? The people at Forbes just sat around and made a list of where they THINK people are moving to?

No, it's a fact that these celebrities live there. How could they have made that up based on statistics?? that makes no sense, lol. I know that they live there, but I found an article just further proving the point. And there are more than in that article, because my friend owns a business on Main St. in the Hamptons and has told me which celebs have come into her store.

Um, I'm not arguing with the fact that celebrities live there.. I actually couldn't care less and was not even referring to that. I was making a joke that you claim "everyone knows Forbes' articles are bogus," and then you use one to support your opinion.

So only the Forbes articles about people moving to Texas are bogus?

I'm not new, I've been reading for a long time now. Just never felt that compelled to write anything.

At least I don't sit here ALL DAY LONG and complain about where I live. How irritating! I'm sorry that you have an MBA and still live with your parents.

What does NYC have to do with anything? I've never said a word about disliking the area, and in fact, I have said a few times that I love the city. I never said I knew anything about the area, but yes, I have been there a few times. Newsflash..you don't live there. Why do you even care?

You are ridiculous.
