We visit my partners family in Denver a few times a year and it makes me want to slit my wrists. If I quit skiing (getting closer every year) I figure I could tolerate Ft. Collins, which still seems semi-affordable for some reason.

Yeah, most of my longtime friends still live in Boulder/Denver. There are certainly lots of things I still love down there.....(and they have women now. Lots of them. And the hot ones aren't just 20 years old and there only for school)......but driving on 25 or 70. Holy shit. No thanks. It's like the LIE now. Psychos weaving through across 5 lanes etc. Just insanity. It wasn't like that 10-15 years ago.

Every city comes with its own special blend of infuriating driving but wtf is the wrong with Denver area drivers? Why do they all go the exact same speed in every lane (which is always the speed limit)? I couldn't figure out why I found it so frustrating even though the roads weren't that busy until I realized I was driving the speed limit all the time in every lane behind a bunch of people that were either actual or spiritual Subaru drivers.

It is unfortunate that no one in Jersey buys from farmers markets or farm stands anymore.
I’ll put Wisconsin corn and tomatoes over Jersey. We had a farmer who treated his corn like it was grapes being made for fine wine. He was a third generation farmer who was the one selling off the family farm. But he’d plant 10 acres of yellow and white and white sweet corn on a section of the 1000 acres they still owned. Man was that great corn.

Don't head up northwestern NJ much do ya? Plenty of farmland, 4H clubs, and farm stands.

I know this is contrary to TGR exceptionalism, freeways are designed so that traffic flows best when all cars are traveling the same speed with the proper amount of space between vehicles, roughly one car length for every 10 mph. This even allows for on ramp merging without slowing traffic. If everyone is traveling at different speeds and staying nut to butt traffic slows down.

The local groceries round here carry local corn and apples from local farms when in season. Ton of farms around me in the black dirt region of orange county. No shortage of farm stands. Most are honor system based. Fresh eggs, fresh meats, farm shit?

EZ Pass makes it a breeze, you never need to wait. Driving the GS Parkway does not bother me. I guess coming back from the Shore at night is a little sketchy with all the video game drivers. Scarier than that though are the crotch rocket boyz who scream past on the lane dividing lines. Wtf. Cops can't catch them even if they wanted to.
Three Brothers from Italy on Casino Pier boardwalk has great pizza imo.

Closer then you think.
And you could even ride your bike.

The local fresh corn was good last night.
Tomatoes; I grow my own.

You are right...but I want to be able to pass in the left lane. Nothing I can do about it other than complain on the internet and drive slowly when I'm in CO.
Anyways, stumbled on this on YouTube - I agree with a lot of what this guy is saying. But it also aligns with what I'd like to see happen as a prospective buyer:

The tomatoes from my MIL's garden are out of this world. You put a slice on a sandwich and you need no condiments at all, no mustard, mayo, nothing. Just one slice of a Jersey tomato. Mmmm.
Stuff grows like crazy in NJ. Compare that to the 4,000 foot high desert where I live now and maybe that's why NJ seems so appealing. Of course I remember that same feeling of craving moisture before we moved to Washington, where stuff also grows like crazy, and after seven years of getting soaked out there I was ready to move back to the big dry.
