About New Jersey
New Jersey, known as the Garden State, is a northeastern U.S. state in the Mid-Atlantic region and part of the highly urbanized Northeast megalopolis. It lies between New York City to the northeast and Philadelphia to the southwest, bordered by New York State to the north and northeast, the Atlantic Ocean to the east, Delaware Bay and the state of Delaware to the southwest, and Pennsylvania across the Delaware River to the west.
Despite its compact size, New Jersey offers remarkably diverse landscapes. The state features more than 130 miles (≈210 km) of Atlantic coastline along the famous Jersey Shore, barrier islands, the Pine Barrens in the south, rolling hills and the Kittatinny Mountains in the northwest, and dense urban corridors in the northeast. Its strategic location makes New Jersey a key gateway between major East Coast cities, blending metropolitan centers, suburbs, farmland, and protected natural areas.
