People not from Jersey have this impression that it sucks, and people from Jersey love it.
I think it's bc the points of interest in the state are very diffuse. It doesn't have a stand-out center of cultural gravity for the mind to latch on to.
But what it does have is easy access to damn near everything people like.
@acjay Lets face it, Jersey isnt so bad to live or chill in terms of the people and things to do in the area. But my god the state laws are draconic sometimes. Property tax is out of control, and their gun laws are absolutely asanine and restrictive to name a few problems. If NJ had better governance it would be a killer state.

I have little doubt an animal started the pandemic... Of course this doesnt rule out it being man "bred", but that doesnt have strong evidence to support it.
