I have lived here my whole life. I'm not here to bash Jersey, but I have been on Craigslist for the past few months and noticed people really go out of their way to defend the slightest joke about this state, and quoting those tired "Jersey Facts". We have Philly and NYC and the coast (I have lived by the beach my whole life), but we do not have palm trees. This February was extremely cold and windy, down to 15 and less, and about 25 degrees on average. This is a terrible place to be in the coldest months.
I also find people in my area having to make a big deal out of it, when it's really not that great (Asbury Park area). Asbury was kind of cool back in the 70's, I guess, but it's never going ot be the same. Don't kid yourself! I'm sure this happens all over the country, but I still can't help but find it disturbing. NJ isn't that great! I'll go out on a limb and say that NYC isn't that great, and the Philly area is better. Of course, it all depends on the individual.
