Hi!

Well you have found one - I am in Jersey City.
I also know of another person with T1 fairly close to me through another site. I am willing to bet that there are plenty of us!

Where in NJ are you? I don't really know my way around yet (only moved here a few months ago from Australia) so I am familiar with Jersey City, Hoboken and NY mostly.

I'm in NYC, and also never met any other diabetics. Recently I found the Meetup site Meetup: World's largest community of local Meetups, clubs and groups! and joined two local diabetes groups. The Type 1 group had its first meetup a few weeks ago, and it was nice meeting other diabetics. You can search and see if anyone has started a diabetes group in your area. If not, you can always start one yourself.

I live in Bridgewater. Where I worked a few years ago there were 2 guys that sat near with diabetes. We used to have contests to see who had the best A1c!
