As someone who has experienced the roads and highways in North Jersey, there are already too many humans living up here. This is a good thing.

I wish there was as good public transit within NJ as there is to get people back and forth between NYC. It would go a long way with getting cars off the roads.

The sad part about your comment is that NJ has one of the best passenger rail systems in the country :(

In terms of connectivity it really is, but other than that the lack of trains and the fact that a lot of destinations are located off of highways means it's difficult to live without a car, at least in Bergen/Passaic counties which I'm most familiar with.

Migration talked about here is not even putting a dent in actual overall population, which is still increasing, because you know, babies are still getting made and 10k people leaving any area of a state with 9 million people in it is irrelevant to the pop.
