Which of these towns would you most like to live in?

And as for me, I'd strongly prefer living in Hoboken.  If I had to move back down to New Jersey, it's literally the first town I'd look into—easy subway access into New York City, and, even cooler, commuter ferry service.

So why stay dry since then? And the rest of NJ towns that are? That sounds bizarre, you can expect that in Kentucky or Mississippi, but New Jersey, wow, weird.

Best place in New Jersey: New Brunswick

There's little incentive for the towns to go wet when you can walk a couple blocks east and wind up in a different, wet town.  Or walk a couple blocks west and wind up in a different, wet town.

New Jersey towns are so small that one municipality being dry isn't inconvienient in the slightest for its residents.  (And better yet, it means that they don't literally need to live next door to a liquor store.)

And yeah, as someone who spent his time in college living on Easton Ave., New Brunswick is a great town.  Especially if you like dingy punk rock bars and music involving screaming.

Why the hell is Rutherford dry? Doesn't seem like the type of bastion of religious conservatism that dry places tend to be.

I think I did a bad job of describing Rutherford as "dry".  We cannot have bars or serve liquor at a restaurant, but the town's most prominent restaurant has a liquor store inside of it where you can purchase liquor and there are plenty of liquor stores.  And Fezzy, Rutherford is not "queer" the Rutherford our mayor has tried to create is

Except the boost to the economy those wet towns get at the expense of the dry town. The dry town is only screwing itself.

I LIKE literally living next door to a liquor store!

In a hypothetical situation, A or C would be fine with me . . . just as long as my home in two A is on a 5+ acre lot of land with lots of trees, and butts up along the railroad tracks so I can sit on my back porch and watch the trains on the weekend.

From my own experience (and confirmed by looking at Google Maps), there are no lots in Rutherford larger than maybe an acre and a half.

Yea, where not exactly the Borough of Open Space.  And to burst MODU's bubble further, a street runs between all houses and the train tracks
