An area in South West Pennsylvania full of anything from crackheads, stoners, farmboys, rednecks, Christians, and white bois trying to be gangsters.

Get the Somerset County mug.
A boring ass county sandwiched between Middlesex (Rutgers crowds) and Hunterdon (New Hope extension) crowds. There is absolutely nothing to to here. Everyone hangs out in Somerville just cos there is no place else to go on a Friday night. Full of either old, gettofied neighborhoods or bland, soulless cookie-cutter sprawl on former farmland. Ridiculously expensive for no good reason.
Person 1: Damn she acts like she got no life, where she from?

Person 2: I think Hillsborough, in Somerset County.

Person 1: Go figure, the middle of nowhere.

Somerset County, NJ is the wealthiest county in the United States with an astronomical median household income only rivaled by neighboring Hunterdon County. The kids are snotty because they are brought up wealthy. Somerset County also boasts some of the best schools in the country including Bridgewater-Raritan High School, a state of the art campus whose academics were nationally recognized. BRHS is a blue-ribbon national school of excellence. Other high ranking schools include Ridge High school and Pingry Prep. Somerset County is the home for many famous CEOs who live in the Somerset Hills. The county has some of the largest homes in the state, and some very exculsive towns including Bridgewater (Martinsville), Bernards, Far Hills, Bernardsville, Warren, and Basking Ridge.
Somerset County, NJ is like the Orange County of the east, except a lot wealthier.
