    "Getting better with all the new buildings going up its becoming like downtown Jersey City and great for improvements for the neighborhood. But, need more affordable apartments for people who earn less than $50,000 per year. Not everyone is earning over that, unless working TOP jobs. Most people are Blue Collar workers at least 70%"
