Both my wife and I are B&Rs from the Garden State. I have included a link that gives some of the reasons why we love our state (in addition to greatest state population density, one of the three highest per capita incomes, one of the largest percentage of high school students taking entrance exams and enrolling in college, most dense highway and rail system in the U.S., largest seaport in the U.S., etc.). You can look up any state from this link.
