Top 20 Things That Frustrates Every New Jersey Local During Summer
Living at the Jersey Shore is like waking up on vacation, every day.
During the summer, even if you have to work, you can get up and go out to the beach, or go for a walk on a boardwalk, go for a run, you can literally do everything that the visitors do, except, you get to do it daily.
There’s a lot to love.
Even in the winter months, this area has a lot of fun and unique activities that keep us entertained all year round.
Not only do we love the uniqueness of living on this busy coastline, but we have New York City and Philadelphia within a short distance.

After hundreds of responses, we have the biggest.
