Never thought I'd like NJ, but... - 9/19/2009

Upside: Ramsey is a great town in Bergen County with so much to offer. Schools are good and there is a pretty, compact shopping district. It is less congested than towns in the southern part of the county. There is easy access to hiking in state parks both in NJ and NY. We moved here from Ridgewood NJ about 5 years ago and found it friendlier and prefer the easier access to natural areas rather than to yet more shopping malls! (Of course, being Jersey, the shopping is never far away). Downside: Bergen County is expensive and Ramsey taxes, housing, etc. are no exception.[read more...]

Too crowded, too expensive here. - 1/9/2007

Live here since 1983; brought up my kids here. Want to leave because the it's just too expensive to maintain a decent lifestyle here. My kids don't want to stay either. Traffic in the surrounding areas (all over the state, really) is horrendous. The pull of NYC is not enough to make us stay. It's a pretty town, good schools, but high housing and taxes.[read more...]
