Probably next door to him in the trailer park
In the 00s I worked for a residential developer, and we were building a bunch of $800-900K McMansions down in South Jersey. And when you made the turn to enter the new development, to get to the sales office you had to pass this one old, ramshackle house, with a dirt yard, broken down cars, a dead tree with a tire swing, and a whole horde of diaper-clad niglets running around screaming. When the saleswoman first saw it, she broke down in tears. NJ truly is a land of contrasts.

I grew up in Elizabeth. Then "upgraded" to Rahway. Got my own place in Woodbridge before leaving the area altogether. There are tiny pockets of moderate wealth here and there surrounded by filth and disappointment, that's for sure.

Imagine a petri dish filled with third-world bacteria and little White specks of penicillin scattered here and there, struggling to fight off the infection.

Say no more. There are few places I'd prefer to go to less than Rahway, and Elizabeth is one of them. Nice maximum security prison, though.
