Jersey City
About 290,000 people.
Jersey City sits right across the water from New York City and offers some of the best views of the Manhattan skyline. It is a lively, diverse place where people from all over the world live and work.
You can visit Liberty State Park for close-up views of the Statue of Liberty, hop on a ferry to Ellis Island, or walk along the waterfront and watch boats sail by.
