Yeah. I would say downtown Rahway has more of a bougie-but-diverse feel whereas Plainfield feels like what I imagine a bustling busy shopping area might be in Latin America. Plainfield feels more Latino-centric.

Both are cool!

Ohhh explain that to me. Is that why so many shops and restaurants opened? Is it some sort of tax break?

Wait what are the condos gonna do

"In 2020 census, 51% of all people living in Plainfield were of Hispanic origin.[11] This was up from 25% in 2000[63] and 40% in 2010.[21]"

Just judging from my drive, it's not Rodeo Drive or anything but I wouldn't call it run-down, at least not Downtown Plainfield

Would be great

They renamed a stretch of road on west side as "Parliament-Funkadelic Way" last year

Even looking at it live on Google Maps right now, mid-afternoon on a Sunday, downtown Plainfield is listed as "busy"

I have to say the restaurants looked real good.

I didn't know there was one!

Yeah it is so bustling! It was not like that before covid.

I don't think so as far as I know

It is shocking in its hideousness

The mock up of that entrance is the most hilarious ugliest, uncoolest thing I have ever seen in my life

Rent a house in Rahway

What's that?

What's that - sounds cool

Someone do a good standup comedy event!

Or house music all night long
