Hudson Country may, geographically, be one of the smaller counties in New Jersey- but it sure is in the center of the action!  Hudson County has seen explosive growth and redevelopment over the past 10 years, riding on the coattails of New York City.  Jersey City, in particular, has undergone a renaissance - adding a skyline of skyscrapers as large corporations are attracted to the city.

So What Makes Hudson County special for buying or selling a business?

• Proximity to Manhattan
It is hard to get to Manhattan without going through Hudson County.  Whether take the Holland or Lincoln tunnel, the PATH train, or NJ Transit - all traverse Hudson County on the way to Manhattan.  A five minute ferry from Hoboken or Jersey City is the height of convenience for many.


• Lower Costs Compared to Manhattan
Rents, labor costs, and many other operation costs are far lower in Hudson County.  This fact alone has driven many companies out of New York, and new companies to set up shop in Hudson County rather than starting fresh in Manhattan.  And beyond these companies, other small business owners have been creating a thriving environment, catering to the larger companies and corporations.

• Labor Pool
Hudson County is quite diverse.  While plenty of unskilled labor abounds, young communities such as Hoboken are a hub of well-educated young people that provide a vast pool of skilled talent.  A company doesn't need to look far when they need to staff a number of financial analyst slots.
