No i didnt move here for a job. I know a friend from college that has family here. He said he was thinking of moving here. I thought about the idea for a while and took it once i had the opportunity. I broke up with my fiance, left everything in Virginia to start a new fun life. It tragically didnt turn out that way now im suffering from it.
I still think nj tranist should connect bayhead directly to AC. This way you bypass philly when coming from NYC. Saves time.
I remember reading recently that NJ Transit either cut back or eliminated some train service due to lack of ridership. So I don't think adding more trains is the answer.

The train at one time did go to Seaside Park cross Barnegat Bay and go to Philadelphia. THE ROW on the island is now roadways, much of it is Route 35 SB. Can not go on the old tracks. The cost of getting rail to mainland from Bay Head would be very high and not wanted. Perhaps an extention of the MOM via Lakehurst, Toms River would be more realistic. Having easier access to the Shore south of Bay Head from NYC and North Jersey would probably help with traffic on the GSP, but there would need to be shuttle bus service to places like LBI, Ocean City, Cape May etc

Unfortunately yes, however i do realize my mistake now. I cant even come out the house its just so bad here and miserable. I cant wait too leave i pray to god its soon.
i thought it would be just like vegas and my life would be perfect. Man i wish i could leave. One question, why doesn't the city seperate the ghettos from the attractions?
It's not that complicated. Forty years ago, legalized gaming presented an opportunity for true revitalization. That opportunity was squandered.
WHY? Because in this real-life Back To The Future parallel, Biff won! And the Biffs want the ghetto integrated with the "attractions" — just enough to get the votes.

Where im from in Richmond crime is often. But rarely is it as vicious and brutal as this place. this city is 17 square miles and has Chicago like crime. I was walking down Pacific Avenue today really just depressed the whole city looked deserted. Like a ghost town. Its depressing living here i have to wait atleast a year to move though. Hopefully it works out for the best. (Bold emphasis added)
Boardwalk Empire may be more docudrama than fiction. Nucky Thompson is based on a historical character. Is Chicago-like crime really a surprise?

I'm pretty sure that's not the kind of crime he's talking about.

Sounds like you should break whatever lease you have and get the hell outta there. Its not worth risking your life.
Am I the only one who thinks OP might be trolling? Something about this whole thing seems off.
I also suspect trolling.
