"Well, I like living 10 minutes from Freehold, 20 from Asbury Park," Springsteen said to Variety in 2017. “The main thing that grounded us here is we had a huge family, like an 80-member-or-more Italian-Irish family, and when we had our kids, we brought them back here because we wanted them to grow up around family.
"We were lucky enough to have them all in one area at a certain moment — that’s unusual these days — and they all basically grew up here around their aunts and cousins and grandmoms: how I grew up," he continued. "We have this beautiful farm, and yet we're only 25 minutes from the ocean … and I'm still a beach bum so I’ll swim until November. It's just still a place that we love, man."
