I lived in Neptune and now Toms River and I have always considered myself Central Jersey.

It's alright friend, it's not meant to be a joke map - just an observation.

I think I feel this as I move around the state. Not sure the NCS designations are right (but it works without more controversial labels). Unfortunately it represents a more serious divide (polarization) than NCS or Pork Roll/Taylor Ham...

This is a good population density map, not a cultural map

Hills / Fall Line / Coastal Plain

Not really. Brick and Toms River have as much population density as the blue suburbs. It's cultural differences.

There’s no way Bergen County is “central” Jersey.

The socio culture is the same in Camden as in Princeton as in West New York as in Alpine? I don't think so.

Of the whole state. The line going from New York to Philly is much denser. Of the top 25 largest towns in NJ, 19 are in the "central" line. Brick and Toms River are more like outliers.
And you're saying people in Middletown have more in common with people in Atlantic city than they do with Woodbridge OR Hackensack with Camden than Wayne?

Socio-cultural or political?
TheseMenArePawns OP t1_iszcp4x wrote
It is technically political, but I didn’t want “political” in the post title and make it super controversial

I will not allow it. Get out of my courtroom
tbert56783 t1_iszh8c9 wrote
That's fair but I think it is somewhat controversial anyway....

You just basically outlined PSE&G (electric) territory.

Actually, this looks more of a voter's map. Ocean County is high density and republican voters.

No way you just called Hudson county Central Jersey

Teterboro, it tied for the presidential race in 2016

I’ve noticed this too. Areas within 5-10 miles of the Turnpike vote blue. The others mostly vote red.

Is there a meaningful difference? Politics nowadays is more cultural than, like, policy driven

Uh oh, did not mean for this post to be received negatively. Just thought it was interesting seeing the N/C/S split from a different angle.
