New Jersey's Regions
New Jersey may be known as the Garden State, but to truly know the state you must take into account more than the fields and farms. From quiet fishing villages to bustling urban centers, you'll find it all here.
New Jersey is divided into six main regions: Skylands, Delaware River, Gateway, Shore, Southern Shore, and Greater Atlantic City.
