A warm Caribbean island. It's owned by the United States (as a territory) but has plenty of Spanish influence. I practiced my Spanish there and to my surprise, up in the mountains of the interior, they didn't speak much English. They run on "Latin Time" too.
Many tourists coming to Puerto Rico just stay in San Juan-they don't explore the west, east, central, and southern parts of the island-something I recommend doing.

A state that has managed a reputation of being bad-but really isn't. It has beautiful scenery in southern and north-western parts. It's more than the smoke stacks and utilitarian New Jersey, New Yorkers see across the Hudson.

A vacation town for families from Washington state and Short Hills, New Jersey. Full of resorts and essentially the Beverly Hills of AZ. Lots of people came because of Covid-19 (for they are scared to exit the US and not be allowed back-in.
Scottsdale, AZ-I am going on vacation to the Ritz-Carlton in Scottsdale and to see the Grand Canyon.

University Of Pennsylvania-A prestigious, ivy league school, yet less well known as many other ivy league schools. They are big competitors with Princeton. (Ranked #9 on Niche.com within all U.S. colleges. )
I can't believe Jack got accepted to University Of Pennsylvania but not University of Michigan Ann Arbor.

The utilitarian house—though only 1500 square feet, in the shape of a box, and comprised of merely, a small kitchen, bathroom, and bedroom, was perfectly suitable for John's needs.

The act of raising the prices due to increased demand and/or low inventory of a product, service, etc.
Price gouging-The stores in the CA gold rush would price gouge because they were the only in town and the miners needed the supplies.

Millburn has a very prestigious school system. Many come to Millburn/Short Hills for these very reasons. However, be advised! Their middle and high schools are very intense and fast paced. My family member claims it's "a fight" to get inquiries answered by teachers and staff.
