MAP OF NEW JERSEY
Pictured below is a map of New Jersey. New Jersey is a state in the northeastern United States. It is bordered by New York (to the north and east), the Atlantic Ocean (to the east), Delaware (south and west) and Pennsylvania (west). The Delaware River defines most of New Jersey's western border. New Jersey's prime location has made it an important commercial hub and an ideal area for manufacturing. In spite of all this, almost half of the state's land remains wooded. The state's major rivers include the Manasquan, Maurice, Mullica, Passaic, Hackensack, Rahway, Rancocas, Raritan, Musconetcong, Toms, and Delaware. Needless to say, this charming little state is prone to frequent flooding. New Jersey has 21 counties, and is the nation's most densely populated state. The state's most popular cities for tourists are Asbury Park, Wildwood, Atlantic City, Seaside heights and Cape May. New Jersey's largest cities are Newark, Jersey City and Paterson. FUN FACTS ABOUT NEW JERSEY: The world's first drive-in movie theater opened in Camden in 1933. New Jersey has seven major shopping malls, all of them located within five miles of each other.

Some of New Jersey's most famous natives are Abbott & Costello (comedy duo), Jerry Lewis, Jack Nicholson, Dorothy Parker, Frank Sinatra, Bruce Springsteen and Meryl Streep.
