McMansions Catch a Lot of Grief

The concept of the McMansion seems to have been invented for the Jersey Shore. Since all of the good real estate, within 10 minutes of the beach, had been developed years ago, the next best thing would be to buy a farmer’s field 20 to 40 minutes from the beach and put as many large houses on it as possible. That is why towns like Holmdel, Howell, Manalapan, Marlboro and much of Colts Neck, exist; so that one can live in a mansion at the Shore, when you really can’t afford to live in a mansion at the Shore. If you really could afford to live in a mansion at the shore, then you would actually be living in Rumson, Deal, or Spring Lake.
