“Even with a strong economy, New Jersey lags behind its potential”. That was the statement released in a recent study done by the San Francisco-based consumer advocacy site NerdWallet, when they ran a study to determine which town offered the best job opportunities. The study was posted in the newest issue of NJBiz, and despite the negative aspects involved in the study, NerdWallet also credited NJ as having rising resident income and a diverse statewide economy which NerdWallet commented was “one of the most varied yet in NerdWallet’s analysis.” The study broke down each location according to population growth, employment growth and income growth.
