When I saw this map, the first thing I thought was that the "big houses" label for Eastern Camden/Western Burlington should be replaced with "tacky McMansions."

But beyond a few other nit-picky details, the map is very accurate (and hilarious), though they definitely should have put Margate/Longport/Ventnor in the "gaudy summer homes" category.

Now New Jersey is being tied up with Philly?

I visit with the Russians and the Pollacks, the Italians and the wife beaters......very funny.

Damn, I'm in the "old people and asians" area. Guess it could be worse

This guy really knows New Jersey. The map is remarkably accurate.

I lived in Happy White People. My sister lives in Pretty Much Alabama.

The main problem with South Jersey is Farms & Army Bases. The bases aren't all army bases & they are actually in Pineys, Pineys Everywhere.

Based on the areas of NJ I know, I do agree.

However, I don't get what he means to imply by The Hill People section, in the area of I-78 between Phillipsburg and Hackettstown.

I agree. In Philly the river is grey brown. In Detroit it is a beautiful shade of aquamarine blue.
