Ok so there is this kid who just moved across the street from me and is from New Jersey. All he fucking talks about is how "hard" New Jersey is, about all the murders there and all the beautiful women that live there. He likes to say
"Ohio ain't shit, boy", when I mention anything about my state. I don't even talk shit about Jersey to him, yet he constantly lectures me about how rough it is there.


I've never been there, so all I know about it is what I've heard and read. It doesn't really look any different than any other state, except doesn't it have lots of toxic waste or something? Anyways, I'd like to hear from people who have lived there. Is it really that "hard"?
 
You wont believe it since its comin from me, and you knwo its where im from and bla bla bla so you gonan think its biased, but i can ssay honestly and objectively that yes, it IS that hard.
jersey aint somethin to fuck with man. oh yea, it has some nice ass places that are crazy expensive. and plenty of rich bitches. but overall as a state, weredirty, grimey, ghetto, nasty, and fuckin INSANE.
jerz has the most dangerous city in the country for one...
its statistics but for real. i been out there to ohio and other places out west. illinois. PA. been down south to Va and SC. it really aint shit. they dont call it dirty jersey for nothing, and my signature on here aint a lie either. ill fill ya in sometime but right now i gotta work
 
damn. it sounds like new jersey IS SHIT!!! Literally!!!

But I thought Detroit was the most dangerous city in the us.

Trenton or Atlantic City maybe?

Camden, N.J., named most-dangerous city
Associated Press
Updated: 1:39 p.m. ET Nov. 22, 2004

RENTON, N.J. - Camden has been named the nation’s most-dangerous city, snatching the top spot from Detroit, according to a company’s annual ranking based on crime statistics.

Officials in Camden, which was ranked third last year, downplayed the dubious designation Sunday, saying many steps have already been taken to reduce crime in the city.

“We must give our people jobs, training and opportunity,” said City Councilman Ali Sloan-El, who pointed out that Camden’s poverty is an important contributing factor to its high crime rate.

Atlanta, St. Louis and Gary, Ind. rounded out the top five in the most dangerous city rankings, which was to be released Monday by Morgan Quitno Corp. The company publishes “City Crime Rankings,” an annual reference book that will be published next month. Detroit fell to second in this year’s list.

However, company president Scott Morgan told the St. Louis Post-Dispatch in its Sunday edition that he had been unaware that St. Louis police omitted 5,760 crimes from their 2003 crime data. Provided with the correct data, Morgan found that St. Louis would have switched places with Atlanta.

he news wasn’t all bleak for New Jersey. The state’s Brick Township was rated the second-safest city for the third straight year, behind only Newton, Mass., while the Garden State’s Dover Township was ranked tenth. The other communities in the top five were Amherst, N.Y., which had been ranked as the safest city for the past four years, followed by Mission Viejo, Calif., and Clarkstown, N.Y.

The rankings look at the rate for six crime categories: Murder, rape, robbery, aggravated assault, burglary and auto theft. It compares 350 cities with populations of 75,000 or more that reported crime data to the FBI. Final 2003 statistics, released by the FBI in October, were used to determine the rankings.

Jersey is great because you can drive within in an hour of your house and be where you want to be. If the city is what you want, NY is close, if you want to go mountain biking or hiking or whatever new paltz, ny is like an hour. And if you want to go someplace far theres most likely an airport like 20 minutes away from your house!! Im talking about north jersey here... south jersey is pretty worthless and should be considered part of PA or delaware.

Also drugs are everywhere because theres a lot of ghettos.
 
New Jersey is just one fucking suburb.

DC. Now that's where it's at. It's always a riot...er...party here.
 
There are advantages to having a high population density over a big chunk of area. And NJ is not a bad piece of real estate, taboot. Big mountain view, big ocean view, big city view all in one. If those advantages appeal to you, NJ can be a pretty cool place to live, if you don't mind the pollution. Having lived in a couple crowded Asian countries and loved it, I sometimes really enjoy a trip to Jersey to get a bit of that feeling back.
 
The suburbs are generally nice to incredibly nice.
The highways let you go through/around most ghettos at 90mph.
287 is the United States' Autobahn.
Some good surfing.
Some good nature.
Close to everything.
etc, etc.

It's generally a great place to grow up. You get more varied experience living in NJ than you would in most other places.

As for NJ being "hard" or "harder" than most other areas...not really. Uptight does not equal hard. All ghettos have their rough spots. Loud people are not tough.


Tell your friend to shut the hell up and take him cow tipping. =D



PS: South Jersey (beaches are property of north jersey) is a complete grundle and should be paved.

Thats true...you can never have enough parking lots.
 
Because that's EXACTLY what Jersey needs...more places to blaze...:\

Seriously, though, I find New Jersey awesome because it's really not that hard to get to some really cool spots...I only live 40 minutes from Monmouth Mall(the closest mall we could find to Red Bank, whuch has TOO MANY FUCKIN' CAR DEALERSHIPS PER SQUARE FUCKIN' MILE!!!), and I went for a midnight drive and ACCIDENTALY ended up in New York State, then took a wrong turn into NYC, made it home, then got pulled over to kill time ALL before 4 AM...New Jersey for me is like a Choose Your Own Adventure State, because I can encounter a large number of situations in a relatively short amount of time.

But that's just my experience...I may just be a Crazy Jerzey Jew who's having TOO much fun with his state.

what the fuuuck are you talkin about yo. you either grew up in jersey and lived in a shitty subrub and never saw any of the rest of the state, or you dont knwo shit and youre just talkin out your ass about it. :\

Skavenger since when is jersey uptight?LOL. its gotta be one of the most non uptight, anything goes, make fun of yourself,'' we know were crazy what you gonan do about it'', states that there is.

Alot of people who say jersey aint hard dont know firsthand

It aint like "oh man my states so ruff it will sneak up on you in your sleep yeaaa" type of shit cuz i will say that the "mines is better than yours" shit is kinda dumb but i am just saying facts when i say that when it comes to the hood and the people who live there jersey is something you just dont fuck with...the difference is other places like queens, ny, etc is hard but jerz has that edge of insanity. we dont fuck around and shit moves quick here.

it aint like "its hard cuz theres alot of ghettos" cuz liek you said, yea everywhere got bad area. but the fact that the hoods here are grimier (not in the sense of clean or dirty, grimey as in GRIMEY)

i been to places other peopel from other states consider "bad" and its ilke what the fuck is this i could call this the nice side of town.
 
I get it now.It's a dangeous state.

My only statement really is directed to the kid that lives next to me (even though he's not on here).

If it's everything you say it is, then what? Are you like proud of where your from? I'd be embarased to say I'm from/lived there.

But from most people's decriptions on here (not lacey k), it actually sounds like a visitable state. I'll just stay in the "suburbs"!
 
LOL :) sorry if all that came off different than it was supposed to but ay, most people probably wouldnt like it honestly. i liek it cuz i was born here. but most of us run away at some point

People from New Jersey seem to really like Florida for some reason cuz i can name like 5 fuckin people off the top of my head that i know that have left to go move to florida in the past year.

But they always come back =D no one can escape.

But all im sayin is it is a weird, strange state full of good food, crazy people, bad drivers, rude people, people who dont speak english, people with AIDS, heroin dealers, Italians mafia and non, jackass cops who are bigger pricks than any cops i ever met, rich snooty suburbs that look like they could be in some preppy ass Cali neighborhood, slummy ass hoods, inbeteween borderline bluecollar suburb-almost-hoods, mountains, beaches, hicks, thugs, trailer parks, prep school cokeheds, down n dirty oldschool metalheads and punks, aging bruce springsteen lovers, carjackers, sheisty crackheads, strung out po white folk, welfare lines, Atlantic City Oriental tourists, ASS LOADS of half urban legend half true colorful crazy local history for just about every place you could go (just see Weird NJ, just ONE issue is more than ive heard bout some other states LOL) , alkies and drug addicts, current or past (hard to meet someone in this state that aint a alky, druggie, or past alkie or druggie, or didnt have one in the family), Pine Barrens, hard-ass muthas, pimps, hoes, overpopulation, pollution, farms out in the country, 24 hour diners and Delis, hot rods, fuckin good plentiful and potent drugs, and all around plain crazyness. But to me that just makes me love it more. i never seen another place quite like it. its HOME baby
 
Okay.. I'm also from Jersey and Lacey K considers me a rich suburbanite (i'm technically below the poverty line). I think she may be exaggerating a bit... but that's pride; which I find absolutely adorable.

Yes... we do have our rough neighborhoods. On occasion I'll drive brave friends down Washington Ave in Asbury Park just to show them the 'Hoodiest of da Hood'. But Jersey's appeal is it's amazing diversity. In the town that I live in (Eatontown.. I live down the street from the Monmouth Mall), we have three trailer parks, several low income apartment complexes, lower-middle, middle-middle, and upper middle-class housing. Some houses that are prolly 6-800K. And drive 5 minutes down highway 35 and you have some million dollar mansions. You could be copping crack in Asbury Park, drive 5 minutes down the road and smoke it in front of Elton John's Pink Piano house. There's really something for everyone here.

btw.. Bricktucky being one of the safest cities in the country... I went to a party there and was greeted at the door by a chick with maybe 5 teeth in her whole mouth. I was definitely hearing 'Dueling Banjos' from the movie Deliverance as she greeted me. I drank their free booze and toward the end of the night, the toothless chick's boyfriend told me that he wanted me and my friends to all take turns jacking off on her face... that shit wasn't technically a crime... but I definitely felt unsafe
 
I lived in Colts Neck new jersey and I must say it was very very nice I never saw any crime or anything but I believe its more of the wealthy part of NJ. Overall I think NJ is a very nice state but I kind of lived near all the horse farms so I never got into the actual big cities. But like someone said anywhere in NJ is like an hour from another city its kind of convenient
