In college everyone has a different backstory, but there's nothing better than finding someone who is from the same place you are. Everywhere is different but when you find that one person out of all the people you've met in college, you have so much to talk about even when it feels like where you're from is the most boring place on Earth. While in high school I thought I couldn't wait to leave home, but home is where all my favorite memories are from. Here are 11 things you may understand if you were raised in Sussex County, New Jersey.

1. You pass like three farms while trying to go literally anywhere.

Even trying to get to school in the morning, be cautious at the cow crossing.

2. You might've grown up riding horses, or at least had a friend that did.

3. You know all about Action Park and its awful history, but you probably go or work there anyway.

I mean, it's not that bad anymore, right??

4. The Sussex County Fair is a big deal!

You probably own one of those reusable lemonade cups, but you never actually reuse them.

5. You probably know people that own chickens.

6. You've probably been on the Appalachian Trail.

Watch out for those black bears though!

7. There's no such thing as Central Jersey.

8. It literally takes an hour to get anywhere.

New York City? An hour. Any mall? An hour.

9. It's called Taylor Ham.

And a Taylor Ham, egg, and cheese on a bagel may be your favorite thing.

10. We have the most beautiful sunflower maze.

This is mostly just a spot for people to take pictures with sunflowers and post them all over instagram, but that's okay because it's so artsy.

11. No matter how far away you go, Sussex will always be home.

Even though I always used to say I can't wait to leave Sussex, I will never stop missing the place I call home.
