Did I get a skewed view of Jersey?

[MobCounty]

<p>Did I get a skewed view of Jersey?&nbsp; </p><p>The only dude I really know that lived his life in&nbsp;New York,&nbsp; said he lived in 'real' New York. He then explained that anyone from Jersey was &quot;Bridge and Tunnel&quot; , hoofing it over a bridge or through a tunnel to act like they were from New York.&nbsp; </p><p>As far as we know here in Ca., Jersey is pretty much Fresno with less mexicans.&nbsp; </p><p>What't the real story behind New Jersey for those of us who are on the west coast and don't know any better, or only watch Sopranos?</p>

No, you got it right. People from NJ have a skewed view of NJ.

Besides for the area around NYC, NJ is pretty empty.&nbsp; Go down south and you'll find a whole lot of nothing.&nbsp; Go to the west and all you'll see are farms.&nbsp; Out where I live I get stuck behind lawn tractors on my way home from work.<br />

Hey! I grew up outside of Buffalo, and although it obviously has a lot of problems, it's a great place in a lot of other ways...good public schools, an abundance of cheap but quality food, dirt cheap cost of living. There are also gorgeous areas of the city if you know where to go. The taxes are outrageous though, but that's NY. <br>
But yeah, it is weird because everyone thinks that you live close to NYC just because you live in NY, whereas I've not really spent much time in the tri-state area, mostly because it's an 8 hour drive away. Where I grew up is actually closer to where I live now in the DC area than it is to NYC. Only 2 hours from Toronto, 3 from Cleveland, 4 from Pittsburgh.
