A blog suggests that some sterotypes about Jersey City may indeed be true

JERSEY CITY — Jari Nation, from Movoto Real Estate, has decided not to debunk some of the classic stereotypes about Jersey City to embrace them.
Covering a range of subjects from the Sopranos to Real Housewives of New Jersey, the blog hopes to make clear that some things said about the Gateway City may well be accurate, especially in helping to define the emerging character of residents who reside along this portion of the Gold Coast. While Mayor Steve Fulop works to find a way to brand the city, Nation clearly says that Jersey City residents have their own flavor and attitudes, and in some cases, reject some the imposition of characters from other parts of the Metropolitan area such as Brooklyn.
“We published a blog post today on the 10 Jersey City Stereotypes That Are Completely Accurate, like how everyone acts like it’s NYC’s sixth borough (and it’s totally not),” Nation said.

“I thought it might be a fun article for Jersey City residents, these blog posts have been a hit with New Jersey readers in the past,” Nation said.
Movoto is an online real estate brokerage based in San Mateo, Calif.
