Yeah last Jan/Feb the temps were consistently in the teens and below? And the year before that we had several huge snowstorms. This winter is extremely mild, but it hasn’t been like this for years.

Neither, lol. But if I had to pick - NJ.

Yep. But my comment was specifically discussing issues that predominantly affect women.

I can’t forget because I moved that day. It was absolutely insane and the next day I woke up in my new house to the most beautiful snow I’d ever seen.

NJ. I’ve traveled all over, and people recognize my “New Jersey accent” immediately.

I’m interested to hear your Jersey-centric perceptions of living in Florida

Incorrect. Every school district I'm familiar with has eliminated remote learning as an option, which I don't think is a good thing.

I was born and raised in South Jersey, moved to New England for 30 years, and now live in PA. I will always be a Jersey Boy, however.

Reply to Learning the counties and cities of NJ by adgo1
I can tell by your choice of cities that you're not super familiar with NJ.
For example, I was surprised to see "Franklin" as one of the cities. While Franklin Township technically has a higher population, it's far less well-known than neighboring New Brunswick which you excluded. New Brunswick is much more of an actual city than Franklin. It is home to Rutgers University, Johnson&Johnson's headquarters, several hospitals, a large performing art center, an Amtrak station, etc, etc.
Using the population alone in determining which are "Major Cities" in NJ is likely to leave you with a map of some large suburbs that aren't really the cultural hubs of the regions. (See also, Cherry Hill vs Camden).
There are also some culturally or economically significant cities that could be added, if you so chose. (i.e. Hackensack, Fort Lee, Morristown, Bayonne, Hoboken, Asbury Park, etc)
Cool game though!

It was enough, about 15 years ago when we relocated from another state. My girlfriend earned 22k/yr back then and we lived in a small attic apartment of 770sqft in New Brunswick, paying about 16k/yr for housing.
Yes, it's enough to survive. But it's not sustainable without a plan to begin at a low-expense level, and to increase your earnings.

Clumping litter is crushed cement, non-clumping are little pebbles or paper/straw chunks, none will go well in toilet.

Couples making 65k a year do not qualify for affordable housing in NJ, lol.

I've literally never seen this opposition to Uber and Lyft before. It's taxis that are sketchy as fuck. A lot of these people are living in a world of 30 years ago that doesn't exist now.

So you want to make me pay $30 extra every time I need to go to the airport for a WORSE experience? Not happening.

I've been here once or twice since they opened, very good food. You and I are clearly taco buddies.

I believe both are full co-ed besides the bathroom areas. Have been to both with my wife and never was told I couldnt go somewhere with her besides the ladies change/bath area.
