2 Cities In New Jersey Are Most At Risk If Nuclear War Ever Happened
Let's play a theoretical game real quick; if the US was hit with nukes, do you think you live in an area of the country that would be safe?
Sadly, unless you live in the middle of nowhere in the middle of the country, odds are your city could be at risk if there's a nuclear attack against America.
Even if you live in the middle of New Jersey, you could still be at risk if there were ever a nuclear attack against the United States.
Now, I want to be clear, there is no cause for alarm nor are there any bombs falling from the sky. But when I see two places in Jersey make a list of the most at-risk cities for nuclear attack I have to know more.
Why Would Cities In Jersey Be Targeted For An Attack?
You may be hearing that little voice in your head right now asking "Well why would anyone want to attack a city in New Jersey?"
Mainly it's due to our key location along the East Coast.
According to MSN, our location right between New York City and Philadelphia would work against us in the case of nuclear attacks.
It's also one of the most densely populated states in the Country which would cause a lot of chaos should something happen.
What NJ Cities Would Be Attacked By Nuckes?
Cities like San Francisco, Chicago, and Houston made MSN's list of 15 US cities that would be targeted for a nuclear attack, as well as two in Jersey.
Newark and Jersey City are Jersey's most likely targets for a nuclear attack and that's mainly because of their key location to New York City.
I always hold tight to the fact that 'mutually assured destruction" and lots of deterrence have kept us safe so far and will continue to do so, but there's always that "what if?" in the back of my mind.
These are the 15 cities most at risk if nuclear war were to break out.
