New York City

The epitome of gentrification, New York is a prime example of socioeconomic inequality. You see neighborhoods like the financial district where the only people that can afford to live there are insanely wealthy, and then you see neighborhoods like Hunts Point, a source of abject poverty. When the Russians bashed on capitalism, New York was exactly what they were thinking of.

Jane: And spend $30 on a hamburger at Shake Shack? No thanks.

new jersey

The first misconception other states have of New Jersey is that it "smells". Infact the only part of Jersey that may be a little rough on the nostrils is that of coming to the Lincoln Tunnel, since it is heavily populated in the surrounding areas with factories and marshes(which DO NOT home dead bodies).

Jersey is infact one of the wealthiest states in the country that people just can't help but moving to due to it's scenic portions and safe, quiet suburbs. Not to mention the fact that whichever end you choose to move to(North or South) you're in direct locations to two of the largest, bussling cities in the USA(Philadelphia & Manhatten). Not crossing out Central Jersey which is home to some of the most clean, friendliest beaches on the East Coast which has abundant tourism rates in the summer and hoppin' boardwalks.

All our residents in this state may seem very short fused, but hey...YOU try hearing a bunch of shit from bennies and other states sayin' how much you suck and your state is worthless and we'll see how you feel at the end of the day.

We hold it down here, infact i've lived here for 19 years of my life(and counting) and found upon visiting other states(such as Mass., Virginia, Nevada, Arizona, Maryland, Pennsylvania) that i MUCH rather live here for the rest of my life then in some economic wasteland and/or socially constipated place(yeah Virgina, I'M LOOKIN' AT YOU!).

i"NEW JOISEY THE GARBAGE STATE!! YAK YAK YAK"/i

New Hartford

A suburb to Utica in Central New York. It is typically stereotyped as an overly wealthy area. In fact, the people there are not as wealthy as people believe. Majority are average, middle class people. Students from other schools in the area consider New Hartford students to be snobs, jerks, and preps. The New Hartford area is a great area academically. The students are typically very bright. Worldwide recognition for their great AP (advanced placement) courses. They also have a phenomenal music and theater program. The area is also quite beautiful. Yes, there are the usual “ghetto” wannabes in the area, but mass numbers are not. All things considered, New Hartford is a descent area and is a good place to raise a family. Although many stereotypes ensue due to living in the area, there are no real issues there.

Hey did you you hear that we are going to be playing those New Hartford snobs in football tonight?

Yeah, but they really aren't that bad..

Are you kidding? They are loaded there!

No, they really aren't.
