A term used by residents of Perth, Western Australia to describe the phenomenon, often experienced by Perthians abroad, of Perthians not only managing (however improbably) to come across fellow Perthians overseas, but also of them always finding that these co-urbanites are either a) their relatives, b) their acquaintances, or (at the very least) c) people with whom they share multiple mutual friends on Facebook. This oft-described experience abroad (of "being/getting Perth'd") is the result of Perth being an oversized village, of everyone there having a desire and tendency to piss off abroad whenever they get the chance, and of the two degrees of separation that somehow exists for the city's residents.

Perth Amboy 

A small town in Jeresy with a big reputation. What people don't understand is that it get's a bad rep because some people think that they could define Amboy and that's not the case. It's a great town where most people don't leave because it's all they know. With a over populated high school they still manage to have sucess stories everyday. Perth Amboy is and will always be known as "the Ghetto" but that's far from the truth, here is the truth.

Amboy is a great town to grow up but not a place where kids want to stay forver becuase they want to experience more, like every other human being. For a small town and over crowed population, the people definitly represent and most of the time are proud of where they came from because if they are something they could say they made it.
BIG UP TO PEOPLE FROM AMBOY...THAT WOULD BE MYSELF INCULED.
Growing up there i know alot of things and will forever know how it was growing up there i'm not there now but i miss the shit out of it. Perth Amboy will always be in my heart and in the heart of many others even if they don't admit it.

perth amboy is connected to Staten Island by the Outerbridge crossing bridge.It has the historic waterfront abounding victorians with some city landmarks including St. Peter's Espiscopal Church( built in 1722), The Proprietary House which was once the home of the royal governor( built in 1764)and the city marina.The quaint downtown is lined with wide red brick sidewalks,trees,small-chain stores and some restaurants topped by low-rises.This urban insulator is a mainly unskilled community.70% of the population is Hispanic with high percantages of Puerto Ricans,Dominicans and Mexicans.As a result there are many Dominican "bodegas"{hispanic grocery stores),as well as Puerto Rican and Mexican stores and restaurants.Along with the widespread use of the Spanish language. Most people live in row houses mainly old and small victorian row houses.
Perth Amboy is rumored to be ghetto and cheap. It kind of is ghetto for a small city.

Perth Amboy Switchoff 

When you're getting a fantastic hand job and your partner's arm gets tired so they start using the weak hand instead...
"I was looking for some sweet Western Grip action, so I called a couple buddies over. One of them starts strangling the soldier. A few minutes go by and my buddy gets fatigued, so a buddy of mine switches arms! I said 'wait a second, pal! nobody gives me the old Perth Amboy Switchoff!'

Perth Amboy 

Perth Amboy is a basically hispanic town where people are really close and a tight-nit community. Its located right in between Woodbrigde and Hopelawn. Everyone is really united and work together well. Being born and raised there has helped me to learn to be independent and if you havent lived there then dont criticize; because you dont know until you truly experience it for yourself.
Perth Amboy is:
- amazing waterfront
- great hispanic food everywhere
- loving people & accepting of others
- great school spirit
- truly not given enough credit
- dont ever call it a whore filled town (maybe you just ran into the wrong bitch)
