FWIW, my issue with EWR primarily relates to delays, and to a lesser extent more difficult access (mostly the terrible NJ Transit train schedule), but clearly that's a YMMV situation. With zero traffic, I'm actually a little closer to EWR than JFK (on the UWS), but it's still just more complicated getting to/from EWR.
