Site ranks 11 Southern New Jersey towns that suck the most

This is absolutely vicious.

Now, let me start by saying I am a lifelong resident of South Jersey. I grew up in Collings Lakes, moved to Williamstown when I was four, I went to high school in Haddon Township (Paul VI Eagles!), and now live down the shore where I've worked in the Atlantic City area for nearly 30 years. With that said, it pains me to write this.

And note right up front: this is not my list of eleven towns that suck.

And their descriptions are somewhere between savage and vicious.

For starters, they say,

At the top of the list is Newark, but a South Jersey town is right behind it at #2 -- and it's not Camden.
