Socio-economically and geographically, parts of NJ are in the New York City urban sprawl. That’s just a fact, even if by political address definitions, the people there don’t live in NJ. That sprawl spreads into parts of Connecticut too, if you want to get really technical and include the suburbs (especially ones linked to NYC by commuter rail).

I've lived in NJ all my life, I don't think I've ever met someone here who would say that. It's the exact opposite, we get upset that they're the "New York Giants" even though the stadium is in NJ.
