No way Tom’s River should be considered Central Jersey. I live in the heart of central Jersey (somerset county) and it’s not even close. Tom’s River is shore territory.

That said, I originally thought it was Cheesequake Marshlands aka Matawan Creek.

Divide the State in thirds. Where's TR? Right there in Central Jersey. Albeit lower Central Jersey but Central Jersey nonetheless.

Central is between 78 and 195. Aka not Tom’s River.

Tom’s River has zero cultural association with actual central Jersey.

Grew up just outside TR. it absolutely does. Felt the “same” with everything up to about Woodbridge. Start heading south of TR into Lacey and south THEN shit starts getting weird.

We’ll have to agree to disagree on that as I consider our state to be North Jersey, Central Jersey, South Jersey and the shore.

I'll do no such thing lol. TR is Central Jersey and its proximity to the Shore does not change that fact.
