You walk/bike across the GW Bridge and there are dramatic cliffs, black bears, and hiking to the Appalachian Trail.
Of course, other parts of NJ suck, but that's true in parts of the Bay Area too. Hayward and Union City are ugly.

Hudson County is very underrated but pound for pound, a solid urban experience. IMO, the views from NJ, from the cliffs of Union City/Englewood are superior. Northern/Northeast NJ is a gem. An area blessed with good geology and topography and superior views.
I kind of have a bais for liking Union City. I'm a fan of it. Good culture in that city.
