New Jersey knows how to get down. According to Bonus Finder, four New Jersey cities have been ranked as some of the "best party cities in the United States."

The casino review site compiled the list of United States cities based on several attributes the city had to have. Bonus Finder looked at the following criteria:

  • Music Events
  • Bars
  • Nightclubs
  • Late Night Food Venues
  • Hotels
  • Casinos
  • Stripclubs

The site even had your pockets in mind when determining where is the best place to go for a great night out. Below are some factors that Bonus Finder considered in their ranking:

  • Average Price of a Drink
  • Average Price of a Hotel Room
  • Average Taxi Cost from the Airport to the City Center

Lastly, (and maybe most importantly, depending on who you ask), the site also considered which clubs and events had the latest "last call at the bar."

The site reviewed "the number of bars, hotels, nightclubs, casinos, stripclubs, and late night food venues were calculated per 10,000 people. Each city has a normalized score out of 10 on each of the factors, before taking an average total normalized score across each of these scores to reach our final overall score out of 10."

Take a look at the three New Jersey cities that made the top 20 of their list and their final scores below:
