Princeton would be more suitable.

NJ in a way is heavily tied with NYC so its an important aspect of things. A very important aspect. A bulk of the industrial base is within Essex, Union, Hudson, Passaic and Bergan counties. Large portion of the state, along with Middlesex county and a bulk of Somerset. North NJ or anything above say Mercer or Monmouth country is a bulk of the state.

IDK, I just think a better capital would of been Newark or even New Brunswick. Most would be better than Trenton.

On a side note, Harrisburg is a cute city. But I do agree with State College.

And this is not to dismiss South NJ, no disrespect intended but South NJ is a whole different state. Might as well be in South Carolina at that point. North and Central NJ is where its at. The decay is also there in South NJ.

Princeton is a gem of a community. If folks want history, go to Princeton NJ.
