Which New Jersey Towns Rank As 'Snobbiest?'

By Jason Koestenblatt

It seems like every week another New Jersey town is perched atop a new ranking or list for safest town, best schools, or most desirable place to live.

Ten New Jersey towns found themselves on another list, but this one isn’t as glamorous. Let’s remember, though, it’s all in good fun.

According to roadsnacks.net, New jersey has 10 towns that qualify as the “snobbiest” in the state.

The website took a look at New Jersey towns with a population of 5,000 or more, and created a point system to rank median home price, median household income, percent of population with a college degree, and a few other pieces of criteria.

According to the site’s ranking of another New Jersey town:

“Sure you guys make a ton of money, certainly you have plenty of art galleries and theaters per capita, and yes, your homes are luxurious and expensive. But that’s not why you’re a bunch of snobs. This is why: ’Bernardsville is often mispronounced as ‘BernARDSville’ as opposed to the correct parochial pronunciation ‘BERNardsville’.”

The full top 10 includes:

• Princeton
• Chatham
• Mendham
• Edgewater
• Glen Ridge
• Bernardsville
• Westfield
• Hoboken
• Summit
• Oradell
