Of New Jersey's three neighbors, this one boasts the longest border with the Garden State | |
New Jersey's longest *land* border, however, is shared by this state | |
This is the last remaining state that shares a border with New Jersey | |
New Jersey has one land border with this city, which is otherwise separated by the Hudson River | |
That land border is found on this island, most of which was declared New Jersey territory in 1998 | |
About 90 percent of the island is reclaimed land, which coincides with the portion within this Hudson County city | |
That N.J. city's territorial waters also surround this island, making it another exclave of its trans-Hudson neighbor | |
Though they aren't connected by land, bridges or tunnels, South Amboy, Sayreville, Old Bridge and Aberdeen border this city borough across Raritan Bay | |
Further east, the portion of Raritan Bay bordering the aforementioned borough, as well as Queens, is an unincorporated portion of this county | |

Meanwhile, New Jersey's western boundary mostly falls along the midpoint of this river and its bay | |
However, the N.J. border falls back to the river's eastern bank within 12 miles of this city | |
Any land west of the low-tide mark does not belong to N.J., including two contiguous pieces of reclaimed land bordering this county | |
One of these small land borders is found in a state park in Pennsville Twp., not far from the foot of this bridge | |
This is the lone county on New Jersey's western boundary to border a single municipality across the river | |
That municipality is this sprawling city, which stretches roughly from Delran to West Deptford | |
In the center of the state, Burlington County is separated from Ocean and Monmouth by the province line, which in colonial times separated these two provinces (name either) | |
Municipal boundaries in this county, which was cobbled together from land in both those provinces, are divided along that line | |
Today, Little Egg Harbor Twp. and Tuckerton are on the wrong side of that line after leaving Burlington County for this neighboring county in 1891 | |
