In 2021, over five percent of the total population of New Jersey was uninsured. In comparison, nearly ** percent of New Jersey's population had employer-sponsored health insurance. This statistic depicts the health insurance status distribution of the total population in New Jersey in 2021.

It depends on where you are in the state. White-tailed deer populations are not uniformly distributed statewide; habitat, human development, and hunting all influence deer population abundances locally. Deer are often particularly overpopulated in suburban areas with fertilized lawns and gardens that provide nutrient rich food sources to deer but also lack deer management hunting programs.

NJ Division of Fish & Wildlife (DFW) manages deer herd in New Jersey through the use of deer management zones (DMZ). The Division, under authority of the Fish and Game Council designates these boundaries. Deer Management Zone boundaries are comprised of major and minor roads, waterways and geographic formations. Included for references are the county and township data. DMZs are updated on an as needed basis. New Jersey's deer herd is a major component of the landscape throughout all but the most urbanized areas of the state. Deer affect our forests, farms, gardens, backyards and roadways. From a population reduced to a handful of deer in the early 1900s they rebounded during the 20th Century to a thriving herd today. A healthy deer herd, managed at levels that are compatible with current land use practices and the human population, has great value to the people of the state. Deer are photographed, watched and hunted by many in New Jersey and visitors from elsewhere. Deer hunters spend more than 100 million dollars each year as they enjoy approximately 1.5 million recreation-days hunting deer. Money spent in the course of deer hunting benefits a wide variety of New Jersey businesses.
