There are many. My son lives in Pine Hill, and that's pretty blue collar, though clearly white collar people people live there. Possibly Atco. Then again, my son's friend's retired white collar parents moved there. They moved from Marlton. Marlton is very white collar.

Basically every town that touches rt. 1& 9 and rt 30

I think that Manville is much more blue-collar than Clark.

Lol, that's a good one. Clark is like a retirement area of Union.

Williamstown is as well. Actually much of south Jersey is.

I find it funny that people didn't mention Paterson and Newark.

If we define blue collar to mean white working/lower class, white trash, then Gloucester City wins hands down...

It's like out of a time warp...

Seriously, visit it.

Phillipsburg deserves a mention, but really, what’s the point of this thread?
