ROFL! This is really in the full spirit of the question.
Cathe did not answer because she has no free time?

Cathe grew up in the northern part of the state (actually pretty close to where I live now, which is funny b/c I grew up close to where she lives now). It's about 2 hours away & a MUCH more cosmopolitan, urban area than Glassboro.
Honestly, I wouldn't make my worst enemy live in Glassboro.

LauraMax,
You're making Glassboro sound like Flint MI. Is it that bad?

Jennifer, there is really nothing redeeming about Glassboro. It's kind of the sticks. However, it's probably a good place to raise a family b/c you can get a great house super cheap (I think it's b/c no one wants to live there ), although I'm not sure how great the school system is since property taxes are relatively low for NJ. But I'm pretty sure Cathe moved there before she started her family. It's a conundrum I tell you!

Aw, LauraMax!
Aw geez, LauraMax, you're being so hard on poor Glassboro! It may not be your cup of tea (and you're totally entitled, of course, to your own cup ), but I think this is definitely one of those "beauty's in the eyes of the beholder" things because I had a totally different reaction -- I think the whole area's very comfy, inviting and easy to get around. According to my BIL, a lot of folks feel the way I do, apparently. He used to live in Plainsboro, which isn't too far away, and he and his wife made an in-depth study of NJ schools before deciding where to settle and buy a house. Back when I started doing Cathe Road Trips I mentioned to him where I was going, and I remember him saying that the Glassboro-Sewell-Wash Twp area has terrific schools and is a very family-friendly area.
As for how Cathe ended up migrating from North Jersey to South Jersey, I know that Cathe graduated from Rowan University, which is in Glassboro, and her fitness career and her friendship and eventual business partnership with Chris started really taking off while she was in college. The rest, fortunately for us, is history!
