A Staten Island Economic Development Corp. survey revealed something most Staten Islanders already know: They frequently travel to New Jersey to shop.

The Business Council’s Customer Service Survey found 46 percent of borough residents shop in New Jersey while 38 percent shop at home.

Why?

They want more high-end stores like Nordstrom, Fortunoff and Lord and Taylor, which can all be found just a few miles over the Outerbridge Crossing.

“At this point, we really have an opportunity to keep money in the borough and developers should take note…it would be crazy not to plan projects around what our people want, and are otherwise traveling out of the borough to get,” said Business Council member David Rampulla.

The SIEDC conducted the same survey in 2005 with opposite results: Forty-five percent shopped here and 36 percent in New Jersey.
