A state that makes itself out to be something great when really, it has little to offer. New Jersey boasts its beautiful shore, wilderness, its great people, and other things of the sort. Really, most of it's beaches are polluted with random garbage and New Yorkers, are crowded beyond belief, loaded with laws, and the water is coca-cola colored and cold year round. The wilderness is almost non-existent compared to other states, despite the large Pinelands Reserve (which is probably the nicest part of New Jersey). The people are for the most part very conceited, obnoxious,
materialistic, coddled, and rich. Most are liberals, and drive around in some form of an expensive SUV or german sedan. Everyone praises the New York and Pennsylvania teams because NJ doesnt actually have any teams of it's own, and a good time either involves
going to the mall, hanging out at the cold dirty beach, or eating. Girls here are known for
hitting the wall at around 19 or 20, blowing up massively. Other problems with the state are...(you can verify the statistics through gov sites)

New Jersey is a God awful state; when I travel north, I go 3 hours around it just so I dont have to go through it.
Jeez, did you hear that guy from New Jersey, his accent sounded like shit, he wore wigger clothes and gold, and talked alot of smack about nothing; must be rough growing up with your daddy's porsche and a ocean side mansion.
Exceptions:
South Jersey (NJ south of 195) escapes most of the afore mentioned negative attributes, and more closely relates to
neighboring Delaware.
