Jersey City was cited at the best place for a member of the LGBT community to live in New Jersey according to a new study by gay rights group Human Rights Campaign. Cool City topped Asbury Park, Ocean Grove and Lambertville in the study. So how did Jersey City become so darned LGBT friendly? Easy, the city offers transgender-inclusive healthcare benefits, openly gay city leaders and active engagement with the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) community.
We're gonna give the Jersey City Desk last word to Mayor Steve Fulop:
"We also have one of the largest LGBT communities in the state and I have long advocated for equality for our LGBT community, including marriage equality. It was an honor last month to play a small part of history as we celebrated the first same-sex marriages in our state's history and we will continue to advocate for the equal treatment of all of our citizens."
