can someone help me understand my NJ/PA state wage income tax

Hello! I am a recent college grad and just started my first full time job. I am from philly but i work and live in an apartment in NJ. I claimed philly as my place of residence but don't know if i should change it. The following is my income tax broken down:

$1666.74/ biweekly salary
- $167.93/ income tax
- $103.45/ s.s. tax
- $24.19/medicaid
- $51.17/PA state income tax
- $65.40/ phila state income tax
- $15.09/NJ sui/ sdi tax
- $1239.51 after taxes

Based on this information, does it make more sense to claim residence in PA or NJ to pay lower income tax. Any advice would greatly be appreciated!!

Thanks!
