Iowa = 55,857sqmi, NJ = 8,723 sqmi. Larger by a factor of over 6. Population density is where we go gonzo on every other state...

Given that population density, NJ counties are fairly large, but I figure that has a lot to do with factors like historical development patterns, major transportation routes, and land use (e.g., farming). I'm originally from Monmouth County and it's wild how disparate the different areas are.

By the way, any chance you've ever done RAGBRAI? A friend in New Orleans (where I used to live) told me about it; he's gone a few times. Hoping one day to give it a go.

RAGBRAI is awesome!! I’ve never done it but have lots of friends and family that participate. Definitely worth the trip
