Located along the mid-Atlantic coast, New Jersey is the fourth smallest and most densely populated state. Because much of the state lies in the Philadephia and New York City metropolitan areas, many commuters to these cities live in New Jersey.

New Jersey has a thriving pharmaceutical and scientific industry. Pharmaceutical companies such as Merck and Johnson & Johnson both have global headquarters in New Jersey. Research institutions such as Princeton University and Rutgers University also feature heavily in this department.

Telecommunications are also a strong industry in New Jersey. Most notably, both Verizon and AT&T’s main headquarters are in New Jersey, as well as Avaya’s.

Thanks to many residents commuting to Philadephia and New York City, a strong retail and educational presence has sprung up. Other industries New Jersey excels in include chemical development, food processing, and energy.
