I live over in Philly
And we are no stranger to high taxes. The city income tax here is pretty ridiculous. That being said, taxes in NJ when I used to work in the mortgage industry were through the roof. Both candidates have been accusing the other of wanting to raise taxes in ads, so I assume this is really a sore spot for people who live there.
