LI blows Jersey away.Long Island is a beautiful place. I worry about it's future. Huh? Long Island is basically just an extension of New York City.... culture wise...all the way out to Montauk and Orient, you get the same newspapers, the same food in the stores, the same everything...New Jersey is divided into 6 distinct areas for those type of things....1) Northeast NJ (Hudson, Essex, Bergen, and parts of Passaic County), which is basically a 6th borough of New York City, but with The Star Ledger, The Bergen Record, and great hot dogs...2) Extreme North New Jersey (the rest of Passaic County and all of Sussex County), which has more in common with Orange County, New York than it does with the rest of New Jersey...3) North Central New Jersey (Union, Middlesex, Somerset, and Morris Counties), which is sort of boring...they are too far from NYC and too far from Philly to be influenced by either... 4) The Jersey Shore (Monmouth, Ocean, Atlantic, and Cape May counties) speaks for itself... 5) Western New Jersey (Warren, Hunterdon, and Mercer counties), which is heavily influenced by Pennsylvania, whether it be the Lehigh Valley or Bucks County...and 6) South Jersey (Burlington, Camden, Gloucester, Salem, and Cumberland counties), heavily influenced by Philadelphia and northern Delaware.... In the food stores in those different areas, you can find different foods, sodas, chips, etc. from one section to the next...Nassau and Suffolk? A Waldbaums in Riverhead carries the exact same items as a Waldbaums in Valley Stream... And scenery? New Jersey has rolling hills and farms spread out all over the state, with the exception of northeast NJ. Long Island is 90% flat, and the farms are all out on the extreme east end... Nassau and Suffolk is basically all the same from end to end... |
