Sometimes I think all of us New Jersey natives, take our lovely state for granted. Yes, it's very expensive to live here, yes things like car insurance are more expensive here than in any other state. Yes, we have the most toll roads in the United States. But there's something so magnificent about New Jersey. So let's go over some of the cool and amazing things that make our state so unique. We have around 140 miles of shoreline with almost 50 public beaches. That gives us a lot of beaches to explore! We also have some amazing tourist beach towns that boast some really fun boardwalks, with all kinds of carnival games, boardwalk food stands, classy bars, (and dive bars!), restaurants, and New Jersey apparel shops.
