What matters more,
Living somewhere under better conditions with all the attractions close by, or the attractions and tourism a place has while living among its high poverty rates and high rates of poor living conditions?

The title is Bronx versus Northern NJ.

I think that's pretty fair.

KONY has consistently been preaching that the Bronx has more to offer than NJ ... so let's see.

Northern New Jersey, hands down.

Closer to Manhattan than many sections of the Bronx itself.

Better quality of life by far, by any measure.

Readily accessible to much more of the metropolitan area, and the surrounding region.

Overall, much, much more attractive with the exception of small pockets of industry.

Its own International Airport with worldwide connections, without the hideous shlep through Manhattan, and then out the Van Wyck to JFK.


This is just a small sample of the superiority of Northern New Jersey over The Bronx.

Hey, it was your neighbor over in The Bronx's idea.

He practically begged for this thread.

Not the whole state. Read the title ... "The Bronx versus Northern NJ".
