A state that has some nice area's such as Princeton, however it also is the spawning ground for bad accents and poor drivers(Leonia to the Jersey Shore). Although New Jersey might think they are the leaders of the Tri-state, the fact is they are no more then a shadow being cast from the greatest city and one of the three best states on earth (New York, Florida and California). Without New York New Jersey would cease to have any relevance in this country what so ever. New Jersey Pails in Comparison to it's big brother New York, regardless of how it may defend it self.
New Jersey boasts some celebs but the fact NY has about 10 fold or more.

New Jersey has high end area's such Princeton and other nice venues. New York has all of Long Island, Weschester and the exclusive Bay/harbor areas of Long Islands Elite.

New Jersey has cities such as Newark and Atlantic City for entertainment. New York has the Epicenter of the cultural world, New York City.

New Jersey has it's infamous Jersey shore while New York has it's Elite Hamptons.

People who travel to the United States to visit do not come to see New Jersey, they come to see the Big Apple or the NYC.

A state west of NYC known to be one of the most polluted places in the country. If you drive long enough on the NJ Turnpike your chances of getting lung cancer and all sorts of diseases increses by 90%. Its a more spacious state with cheap and less expensive land and houses than NY, in general. A place where people live to get a house for cheap and try to imtiate NY.The NJ average housing price could be 649,000$ (thats even if it is) but thats because u get a house that has 30 rooms ,10 bathrooms, and a lake, a river ,and etc....The land is cheap. In NY you would get a small average house with 11/2 bathroom 2 bedrooms and a backyard if ur lucky with that being the starting price(thats in the bad areas too). Jersey is not wealthy at all and a house in Long Island alone can buy out 4-8 jersey houses.Shit an apartment in Tribeca cost more than a 5 acre house in Jersey. New Jersey people always try to prove themselves to New Yorkers because they know we are more real and have that NY "atitude" so they feel the need to prove to us that they "gangsta" as well, meanwhile they are just a bunch of suburban kids thinking they are "ghetto" and live the hard life. Jersians are not New Yorkers so dont not be mistaken they do not speak like us with the"cawfee" or "Wawtah" accent. They try but they cant be us New Yorkers (dont be fooled people). They are not even close to aggrivated or raged drivers as New Yorkers and if someone from Jersey drove in NY they would be harrased. Everyone knows that Jersey is a dump as well as Staten Island which is literally a few swimming strokes away from Jersey. The reason they got nice cars is because the houses are so cheap that they can afford the car they want.
The name says it all "DIrty Jersey" Keyword: DIrty!!!

"Move ya fucken car moron!......No wonda he's from Jersey....."

One of the most polluted states in the United States, although it does have some nice parts (but what state doesn't?).

Imagine any other state in the Northeast US, with everyday things like suburbs, shopping centers, parking lots, wooded areas here and there, highways, businesses, schools, etc., but with all of these things cramped together in a space 50% smaller than they should be, and it gets bigger every year. And then they say "Hey, development creates jobs! Do you have a problem with jobs being created? huh? huh?" Great.
New Jersey is like one big orgy of feces and urine, with some air freshener thrown in to make up for the sick part, especially on the weekends.

When the shitbox of a state New York flushes the toilet the excrement is sent down the pipe and straight to the taps of those in New Jersey. Drinking such contaminated water leads to rampant retardation outbreaks and arrogant attitudes common to the idiots who live in New York. New Jersey is New York's sewer. Every summer this state is flooded by retards from New York who fuck on the beach and discard their used condoms in the ocean.
When I went to the Jersey shore i got a case of herpigonnasiphylaids from the sand thanks to those New York assholes who think New Jersey is a fuck box.

I'm from jersey, and i have always lived there, until now. My family sadly has just moved outside of the country for my dads job. And it is extremly hard only being able to go back to NJ only twice a year. I love New Jersey so much, and when i talk about everyday in school, the only responces i get are, "hahahaha ur from new joisie!!!" They just dont know, they havent even been to america. There are so many ways to define new jersey so its hard to pick a definition..the people are so nice, sure bad driving (but thats wat makes it fun) no not every person in new jersey relates to someone from the tv show "jersey shore", parts can be poor, but also have the richest towns in the nation. Bruce Sprinsteen, julia childs are from NJ. We have one of the best collages in the nation.....so thats right haters, u dont know how jersey is.....so stop hatin.
example:
hater: hahahaha ur from JOISIE
jersian: no, im from New Jersey
hater: no its pronounced JOISIE
jersian: yea how do u know i have an accent
hater: cause everybody from JOISIE does
jersian:have u ever been there?
hater: ..no
jersian: right, enough said

a toxic wastedump of a state, with the exception of Hoboken - a gentrified 'extra burrough' of NYC, birthplace of Frank Sinatra, where yuppies spawn by the 1000s.
Dayum, you from dirty jerzee?

Should seperate North Jersey and South Jersey into two different states, because many things about them are totally different.

South Jersey: Home of wannabe-Italians, suburbs, overwhelming white majority, farmland, lots of Philly influence (more Flyers fans here than in Philly), close proximity of convenience stores, Pine Barrens, tourist attractions, popular beaches, AC, malls.

North Jersey: Everything in Jersey that was cool about 30 years ago (Asbury Park, Hoboken, etc), more racially diverse, urban, older-looking than South Jersey, lots of New York influence, high pollution, and the stereotypical nasal accent... overall, just looks more depressing.
Most insults directed at New Jersey apply only to North Jersey.
