How Irish is your New Jersey town?

St. Patrick's Day is March 17 and Irish eyes are smiling across the Garden State.

That's because 1.27 million New Jersey residents identify as Irish-American, according to U.S. Census estimates. (About 33,900 also identify as Scotch-Irish).

About 170 towns in New Jersey are at least a quarter Irish, according to Census estimates analyzed by New Jersey 101.5.

The counties with the most Irish-Americans are Monmouth (138,000), Ocean (129,000), Bergen (107,000) and Camden (101,000).

Counties with the greatest concentration of Irish-Americans are Cape May (28 percent), Gloucester (27 percent) and Sussex (24 percent).
