Rio Grande - Work, where? My kids had to leave the area to find jobs. The powers to be do not want industry in Cape May County. Only tourism, retirement and nursing homes. Few jobs pay $12/hour, most pay less. Cost of living keeps going up and few jobs get a cost of living raise. Housing is only for the ones who can afford $300,000 to qualify for a mortgage. I have eight vacant properties in my neighborhood, all under $200,000. They won't sell because the Middle Township Code Enforcement Office tells me they have too many properties to keep track of. What does that tell you?
