I know that, but we're comparing regions of suburbs outside the city.

Greenwich is considered a commuter city to NYC. When I worked in Manhattan, many of the top executives lived in Greenwich.

Why is this even an argument? All of those sections are loaded with cash.

Can you provide a link that says half the financial industry lives in Fairfield?

According to what I have read, the areas in NJ just across the Hudson (Hobokken, Jersey City, etc.) are considered the new "gold coast".

Woooww. 1 person answers the OP and the rest of the thread ends up consisting of 3 pages of picking apart one individual assessment of something relatively meaningless, before a second person finally adds something. That's pretty sad, even for this forum. I guess there's no point in even bothering to answer the OP at this point.

Well that's new to me. I've never heard of that after living in the NYC area for 25 years, lol. The Long Island gold coast is known to be old money, dating back to probably the 1700s.

Oh Rachael, you try so hard..........................
Like those southerners say: "Bless your heart". LOL
Face it, in 2009, younger, upwardly mobile people would rather live in NJ than LI. Hands down.
LI is for LI'ers at this point.
Hudson Co draws all sorts of individuals.
Check & see how many up & comers are asking about Nassau as opposed to Hudson. Regardless if it's artists, yuppies or whatever.
You do the math & then give an honest assessment.

No, Essex Co is not in that group (clearly)................... Step your Jersey knowledge up before you make such claims.
