# Why People Are Leaving Cities for the South Jersey Shore

DANIEL RALLO I SOUTH JERSEY SHORE REALTOR on Instagram: "The case for trading the city skyline for a front porch at the South Jersey Shore.

Comment GUIDE and I’ll send you my Moving to the Shore Guide.

Here’s the thing about the shore.

You don’t give up the good stuff. You just trade the traffic for this:

- Morning coffee on the bay at Bay Buzz in Margate (@baybuzzmargate)
- A second cup later from Ventnor Coffee (@ventnorcoffee), no line, no rush
- A quick drive to the beach instead of an hour stuck on the expressway
- Dinner at Red Room Cafe in Ventnor (@red_room_cafe), the homemade Italian hidden gem locals keep to themselves
- Date night at Bocca in Margate (@boccanj)
- Sunset cocktails on the bay at Catch in Longport (@catchlongportnj)
- Ice cream runs to Margate Dairy Bar & Burger (@margatedairybarburger), a shore tradition since 1952
- An afternoon browsing the racks at Knit Wit in Margate (@knitwitmargate)
- A yard, a garage, and neighbors who wave

This isn’t small town boring. This is the shore on a regular weekend.

If you’re thinking about making the move, comment GUIDE and I’ll send you my Moving to the Shore Guide.
