One in seven respondents in hard-hit areas say they are far from recovery.
A new poll shows two-thirds of New Jerseyans who live in areas that were hard-hit by Superstorm Sandy say life has returned to normal, while roughly 1 in 7 say they are far from recovery six months after the mega-storm hit.
The Monmouth University/Asbury Park Press poll out today finds that the number of residents in hard-hit communities who continue to struggle barely changed since December. And 15 percent say they have barely recovered.
The poll of 806 New Jersey adults was conducted by telephone from April 11-14 and has an error margin of plus or minus 3.5 percentage points.
