I do find that New York's population is generally very healthy, eat well , fresh, and many organically; much exercise (at the very least all the walking, climbing stairs, etc).. Even little things, like I heard the Japanese alignin their beds north to south to affect how they sleep and wake up in the morning.. So... Anybody have any tips for healthy living in New York?

Why are New Jerseyans constantly stereotyped to be the stereotypes of New York City? New Jersey is a big state. When ever someone from not anywhere near the city stereotypes it, they always believe it is a ''Guido haven'' where everyone has this New York type of accent.

Once you hit central Jersey, people start to have a more Mid-Atlantic type accent and they associate themselves more to Philly than New York.
