as fashionable as it is to make fun of new jersey, i am sure it is a very nice place. but it really isn't on topic for this thread to discuss a whole state.
The most interesting cases are when a city or state, is now said to be in different region from what it was historically. For example, Maryland and Washington DC, Southern for much of their history are now said to be Northeastern.
In the larger picture, there is no identity crisis for Washington, D.C. It's the capital of the United States. That's really all it needs to be. Anything else is just details. :-)
As for Maryland, the state is mainly northeastern culturally. But it's somewhat split, as southern Maryland and part of the Maryland's eastern shore continue to have a laid-back, very friendly southern vibe.

Nope. Completely devoid of culture in a more significant way than the moon is devoid of oxygen
