Northwest and southern NJ are fairly picturesque in scenery. Toss out the area bordering NYC, Camden and Trenton and the state is not so bad. Being the high tax hellhole governed by ash holes is the clinker. That goes for Christy Creme too.
The part of Jersey that borders the Delaware River (Huntington County?) is very beautiful. The problem is always the industrial section that is nearest NY. Pretty ugly but I guess if ensures some employment.
