Hoboken

Politics: I am a political junkie
Vibrancy: always something to do and people to see
Family friendly: never far from a meet up with kids at parks, etc.
Small town feel: I can go for a run and see old neighbors, dog walker, friends, etc. It's amazing how often you see familiar faces even though there are 50,000 people in town
Convenience: to NYC for work and fun

Politics: corruption. Political leaders are out
To enrich themselves and their voters (the city employees)
Lack of park space
Poor government service: do everything "half assed" as my Dad would say. For example: planted dozens of trees around town in June and never watered them. Most are now dead. Great job guys!
Rule that requires town employees to
Live in town. They become an unstoppable
Voting block who votes themselves ridiculous pay packages. Need better voter turnout to stop
This but many of this same block of people are trying to defeat effort to move elections to same day as national elections, where average voter
Turnout is better.
