NJ is better than GA when it comes to the qualities you desribed. I beleive we have the absolute broadest range of anything you could want in a state. Cities, farmland, mountains, beaches, you name it. We have four distinct seasons that are all beautiful in their own right and this list right here tells the tale of NJ and its wealth...

the counties in blue are the ones on the list. the counties in white are the ones that give NJ a bad rap. the rest of the counties in north NJ are some of the most beautiful places you will find anywhere and the ones in south jersey are great countryside and the jersey shore.
Myself and Mac'n89blkstang are from the counties that are circled, and the picture i posted earlier comes from a little place called high point state park, less than 10 minutes from my house.
i dont dislike georgia, i have never been there but from what i have seen i beleive that it is a place that i would live. but dont anyone knock jersey, its far better than you know. the problem is that the only part of jersey most people see is the area surrounding newark airport which is a giant ***** hole.
oh yeah, watch your mouth around people who are from those counties highlighted in white, you might not make it out alive
