Life360 says I’m good. Sorry.Only the part East of 71. Same for the the Heights. I'll call the county cartographer.
Proud - How about Long Hill ?
Borders I believe Warren and the kids go to watching hills
Yeah but it’s most like NYCBergen County isn't even the most northern county.
Err what? Maybe if you said Hoboken I'd agree but having lived in Bergen County for much of my life nothing about it is like NYC unless you count the bridge traffic in Fort Lee.
I live in Bergen. Not even close to being like NYC.
You mean you don't have ramped up crime, homelessness,drug use on every corner and illegals pitching tents on the lawn?
So a bill passed on Tuesday naming Hunterdon, Somerset, Mercer and Middlesex part of will be Central New Jersey. How is Mercer included, but not Monmouth?
Because the folks in Trenton are stupid.
Because the bill is regarding the NJ Tourism Map: https://visitnj.org/new-jersey-cities-regions
So the bill requires the Division of Travel & Tourism to pull Hunterdon and Somerset counties out of the Skylands tourism region, Middlesex County out of the Gateway tourism region, and Mercer County out of the Delaware River tourism region, and combine them into a Central Jersey tourism region.
Monmouth County, with so much tourism based around shore towns, is in the Shore tourism region.
It doesn't seem to make sense to put Monmouth in the Central Jersey tourism region, unless the county is divided in half. So maybe they could put Eastern Monmouth County in the Shore tourism region and Western Monmouth in the Central Jersey tourism region.
With all the issues the state has to fix this doesn’t seem like a high priority.
Sounds like the Pork Roll vs Taylor Ham bill is progressing nicely. LOL!
Yeah, that site needs a bit of an overhaul. Just for Flemington/Hunterdon - Liberty Village is dead and never coming back. I’m sure there are many other changes that need to be reflected.
"Central Jersey" should be Middlesex, Union and Somerset Counties. If you want to throw Mercer County in there too, I wouldn't fight about it. I agree that, in practice, Monmouth County should also be in the Central Jersey region, but I can understand leaving it in the Shore region for tourism branding purposes.
What was the Chinese restaurant right next to it? Pretty good if I remember correctly, but gone at least 10 years.Shore Region lodging options: Holmdel Motor Inn
Rutgers football gets it. . . . .

Central Jersey exists in the same way Bigfoot exists. Just need a banner flying over the shore to make it so.
I could give a rat's *** about what's considered North , South, or Central New Jersey.
Well it does - very nice hotel/casino in RenoIf Central Jersey exists, then so does Atlantis.
NJ Tourism is a $45 billion industry, supports 8% of the state’s workforce and generates $5 billion in state and local taxes. So, yeah, it matters a little bit what Trenton does to support and grow it.
Today, we settled the debate once and for all that Central Jersey exists
With legislation signed on Thursday, New Jersey Gov. Phil Murphy declared the middle part of the state as ‘Central Jersey. ‘Four counties make up the legally defined ‘Central Jersey’: Hunterdon, Mercer, Middlesex and Somerset.

Wish he would fix the real issues in New Jersey like taxes and crime.
And stop bowing down to the grotesque teachers unions
A group of us are going to sue (class action) the state of NJ. This nonsense of Central Jersey has cause mental health problems because you make something that doesn't exist into fact.
If there is a Central Jersey (and there is not ), it would need to include at least parts of northern/western Monmouth county. Can't just define by county line.
