Linwood called the #9 most boring place in New Jersey

The folks at Roadsnacks have developed a list of the boring places in Jersey, and Linwood is the only Atlantic or Cape May County town on the list.

Just how did editors determine this? Well, they say, "Data."

"To figure out how boring a place is, we factored in things we generally think make people exciting, and then we figure out which cities have the least number of those exciting people."

Editors don't tell us why they think Linwood is boring, but they did share these statistics:

The average age of Linwood residents is 48.2. 27% of the population is married. There's not usually a lot of crime in Linwood, so maybe that leads to the boredom factor(?).
