The largest "town" in my market area of southern NH is on the list. January business has been double last years and I hope it continues. Last January was bad and there was also a lot of snow and that always slows down business. So far so good for 2012.

If they are including Southern NJ as part of Phila. Metro, I agree with this. Jan. 1, 2012 seemed to flip a switch around here.
