I can't take FLA. It's probably one of my least favorite states. Hate the weather. NJ summers are June-Sept. I like having 4 seasons.

Interesting. I really don't feel any less free in NJ than in most other states that have at least a million people. The peopleless states like Montana or Wyoming are another story, but what do you expect from states with more land than people? You have to be realistic.

Livability, let me see:
I'm on the GSP, its Friday rush hour, I am going past the "boneyard" on my way to the "hole in the wall."
And why should I like this????
(to all Freeper, you have to know north jersey traffic to understand this one.)

Well, if you're heading south, you could like it if you're on your way to the shore, or maybe to red bank to catch a band and some dinner, or even going all the way down to cape may to eat lunch on the beach and watch the dolphins swimming around.
If you are heading north, maybe you are headed up to the Catskills or the Adirondacks for a weekend getaway, or perhaps you're going to the city for some entertainment.
Or maybe you're just a big baby whining about traffic and cemetaries. Oh the horror. Sad so many people have such negative attitudes about life.

Memo to Troy Graham:
The past tense of "shine" is "shone".

I'm always leery of these studies. The criteria is never clear. What makes education "excellent" - money spent, schools built, number of graduates?
I had to laugh when he said, "the people we talk to say they wouldn't live anywhere else..." That's true no matter where you go because those that would live anywhere else have moved away.

Ask New York or Pennsylvania. You're blaming NJ for NOT charging? I guess you just can't win with some people.

Sorry - should have qualified my statement... when shine is used in the intransitive.

This is a joke,right? Give me the bottom three anytime, spend some time in Lafayette, Hot Springs or Meridian and tell me how bad it is.
To: Huck
If you live along the Jersey Shore Monmouth, Ocean, Cape May counties or in the Northwestern part of the state,Morris, Sussex, Warren, Hunterdon I would agree. However the rest of the state is garbage. The long term future of New Jersey is very bad. I would urge anyone with conservative values to leave this state and head for the South or the West not the West Coast. I am talking Idaho, Montana etc. New Jersey under Corzine is headed for bankruptcy after years of left wing liberal leadership both Democrat and Republican.
