Comparing New Jersey and Wyoming

First lets look at the physical characteristics of the two states. New Jersey is one of the smallest states, while Wyoming is one of the largest. New Jersey is the most densely populated per square mile, on the other hand Wyoming is the least. Wyoming is at a much higher elevation and the air is much cleaner and therefore healthier for you. The winter weather in Wyoming is colder and windier than it is in New Jersey; however there is more humidity in New Jersey because it is located on the coast. This makes you feel the cold temperature more in New Jersey.

When is comes to the culinary world there is no comparison between the two states. The pizza parlors and bakery’s in New Jersey are to die for, these are nonexistent in Wyoming. I truly wish we had a good bakery, pizza parlor, and hot dinner spot here. Being so close to New York City, there are and abundance of great restaurants, no matter what type of food you are in mood for, this is not the case in Wyoming, and there isn’t even a good steak house in Laramie. Why don’t we have a Dunkin Donut in Wyoming?

New Jersey is one of the cultural hot spots in the United States, because it’s so close to New York City you have everything at your finger tips. You have all the Broadway shows, museums, operas, Statue of Liberty, and any other activities that you can think of.

In closing, the people of Wyoming are more courteous and in general have a nicer attitude than the people in New Jersey, with the exception of my family and I. New Jersey is very congested, with a lot of air pollution, and it is one of the most expensive states to live in.
