In that case, an entirely useless statistic given the size and density. That area would encompass ~6% of the US population. I misread the infographic and thought they were adding the MSA solely as a location reference. Of course, your interpretation is much more likely to be the correct one.

People seem to be just fine doing that in NYC

The bar is great, with the tacos and pizza enough. A lot of the vendors at Smorgasburg JC were just weak. $14 for duck fat fries that take 40 minutes? Nope.
The bar is wonderfully staffed with a huge selection of usually cheaper local ales, cannot fault it.

LSP would get space for active recreation AND a new community center. It’s a win. For the children, of course!

I did specify... Park & Sixth Gastropub. The York Street location was the only one named that way. The other two locations were Park & Sixth, not Park & Sixth Gastropub. Same owner, different menus and vibes.

Oh this would be good for the children of Jersey City to learn golf! I heard that he really cares about the kids and he’s a humanitarian right?!

Mona Souvlaki on Central looks like it's close to opening. Looking forward to trying it.

Surely eminent domain isn’t even necessary, after all Fireman clearly cares about the youth of Greenville more than anything else so he should happily turn the land over for their recreation

Apparently it's a special colored light that goes off when you go through the turnstiles when you have a senior pass

Fireman says he wants more recreational opportunities for the community. Why would he fight this?
Heck, you’re right, he should donate the land!

How on earth did they know you were using hers? Does it say “senior” when you tap through the turnstile?

Well only since you agreed as a good sport.
Really the only folks that can answer that are your neighbors in the same building. Even then, some units may have issues; I new someone in a new building that had $500+ heating bills the first winter the building was open, and after the developer looked into it to make sure the unit was wired correctly found they didn't seal the concrete slab for that specific apartment correctly so all the heat was getting wicked away. Which side of the building your on can also make a surprising difference in heating/cooling costs depending on the sun.
Did you have PTACs in newport? Most friends I know with PTACs in new construction run $100-250+ during cold months heating the place, more if it's actually cold VS the last few months. Keeping them low & on all the time so it runs the heat pump (if it has that) helps.

It’s just cringe because the area isn’t really gentrifying that quickly to warrant an abbreviation

Wonder if Smorgasbar will go back to the Lutze branding they had when they first opened. I don't care what they call it, that place is awesome. Smorgasburg was a waste of time and money.

Goog point. It should be even higher if it excludes NYC. I have friends in Brooklyn paying effective rates that's are closer to HALF of a percentage point.
