If I beat you with a stick but hand you a piece of bubble gum will you still call me a friend?

I lived there for 16 years. Not sure whether lived is the appropriate verb.

The stench when entering the garden state from New York is enough to turn your stomach. Pay me to live there and I would turn it down. All those vegetables are available in roadside stands and markets anyway. Live there for a statistic? No thank you.

Well, Eli Manning lives there.
Other than that, I can’t think of a compelling reason.
To: EEGator
The taxes and gun laws? You just voided all 50 of the other reasons. BAM!

You could probably hunt humans in Camden and no one would notice.
That might be attractive to elites.

The state has a well-deserved awful reputation, but if you travel within a radius of 15 miles of this place you'll come across some of the prettiest places you'll find in North America:

New Jersey has many friendly social organizations. Thats a plus, I guess.

I once asked a New Yorker why you only have to pay tolls when
entering New York City and not when leaving.
He told me the tolls are there because so many people want to get out of New Jersey.

“You could probably hunt humans in Camden and no one would notice.”
Oh, I thought they did.

NJ actually is a great place, and its much more than NYC urban sprawl.
The south and central are often very charming. I found many outdoor table restaurants in Various towns in the 90s where Id not seen them really before. Great RevWar history which brought me there as well as work at the time (occasional trips to contractors there).
I also have a soft spot for it as the birthplace of my beloved wonder dog, decades ago, in the same town as Lindbergh lived.
Worst about NJ? Jug-handle turns. Hands down.
The worst thing
