North Jersey is an informal and indefinite name for the northern or northeastern part of the U.S. State of New Jersey, which is sandwiched between two important cities: New York City (which North Jersey locals refer to as "The City") and Philadelphia (which South Jersey locals refer to as "The City"). Benjamin Franklin described New Jersey as "a barrel tapped at both ends," and things haven't changed much since. North Jersey is theoretically the area within the New York City sphere of influence.
