...Jersey is Barstow without the great weather...
Uhhh, I was stationed at Barstow 70 - 72 and I would not exactly say that the weather on that part of the high desert is all that great.
Heat, sandstorms, snakes, scorpions, ancient seashores, rocks, sand, a girl behind every tree (no trees), scrub and did I mention heat?
It was tolerable, fairly close to mountains and trees, and I met my wife there so there are bright points.
Still, great weather is a stretch.
You are right in saying New Jersey taken all together is less inviting than Barstow but don’t forget that Barstow is in another democrap run state that is failing, California.

My point exactly.
