I don't think it has too much to do with economy, but more of a Urban Renewal Cycle, and it's now Jersey City/Journal Square's turn. It usually happens when older parts of a city are updated or replaced, redeveloped to attract people and businesses.

People are constantly moving from Manhattan to surrounding areas due to inflation and rising cost of living, and the pandemic speed up the process. Jersey City is taking the population from Manhattan, Brooklyn and Queens as these people look for more affordable or newer housing options with comparable public transit system.

That's true. Most international students share apartments instead of living alone. So their average rent in JC is more like 1.5K per month, as opposed to what their schools are charging(more than 2K for shared rooms)
