Its been ten years so by now it’s probably been overrun with the artsy liberal trustsfarian types…but some of NW NJ used to be pretty cool (but yeah most of the state blows lol). Lots of mountains, public land, country people sticking to themselves (unless you needed help) , small town conservative values, etc. Had to drive an hour in different directions to find big shopping centers or malls. Really reminded me of here. Which may not be a good sign anymore lol. This town is turning into the next cool place to be for liberals.Being a Yankee, it is a city thing. Grew up dodging amish buggies but could be in center city philly in a hour or so. Only reason I ever went to the city was work and a few events. I despised going anywhere near a city, still do.
Rural folks work for what they have and appreciate it more. City folks don't want to work, but expect everything.
Only difference I see between Northern and southern rural folks is honesty. I could shake a hand up north and chit got done. Not here. I don't understand why, it just is. I trust very few here to tell the truth in full.
Now, I am in Eastern NC, and this place is a bit different. So there is no blanket statement being made for the entire state, so keep your panties straight.
Now NJ has always been a chithole. it can fall off just like Ca.
