WHAT IS WRONG with New Jersey? WE have the Best State?

UGH im so sick of everyone giving New Jersey such a bad rep! New Jersey is one of the best states economically. We are the richest state in the United States and we are Number 1 in Education and Graduation Rate....Sure theres the small section of the Turnpike from exits 16-11 but other then that we have EVERYTHING! we are right near NYC, we have beautiful beaches, farms, mountains, friendly people, fast paced society, beautiful Fall and Spring and a great piece of history...I hate how NJ is overlooked and everyone says such bad things about it...half those people have NEVER been to Jersey! Or you have to love the people who come to Jersey for the Jersey Shore and then sit there and talk crap about NJ...if you don't like it THEN DONT COME! find your own beach! We have 24 hour diners, we don't pump our own gas, and we are tough and full of pride not to mention Bon Jovi, Bruce Springsteen, Meryl Streep, Kelly Ripa, Frank sinatra and more all come from the Garden State!

WHAT IS WRONG with New Jersey? WE have the Best State?
LOL, I lived in Jersey my whole entire life practically until last year and I can't WAIT to get back there. I think everybody I've ever heard complaining about it only knows the Sopranos and has never been there.... they think the whole entire state is like the show. Ha, catsovermen, BIG HAIR???????? lol, maybe if you time travel back to the 1980's sweetie... I haven't seen any since then. I lived in South Jersey, right in the middle of the pinelands, farms and right near the shore and it was perfect.





You know what else I've noticed everyone saying.... how rude and cold Jersey and New York people are supposed to be but you know what.......... I moved down to the south where people are supposedly so much friendlier. Well, back home, ANYBODY you walked past on the street... ANYBODY you were standing in line with in a store.... no matter where you were, people up there were friendly and would talk to you. Here in the South, you pass someone on the street and every single one of them stare at the ground. I've asked people I know who live down here and they all said they are the same way and it's the way everybody is down here and they think that we're strange or asking for trouble by being friendly with strangers.... Well I'll take the "cold hearted", "rude", "obnoxious" people up there any day!!

Reply:There are many beautiful areas of New Jersey, but so many crappy areas too. However, this can be said about any state. Honestly, I think it's the heavy make-up, big hair and AWFUL Jersey accent.
Reply:Ok Ok I am coming for a visit this summer from California. Can I stay with you?

Reply:I knew some one from NJ and he was a smart *** punk, It is people like him that are giving your state a bad rep just like us in Missouri people think that KCMO is a bad place but all in all its not as bad as you might think.
