yes, ridgwood may be “the most preppy, collar-up…” town, and it may be wealthy and well off. but just because of that, the people there are not sn-bs. the people are actually really nice. but you can still look for preppy collars and tiffany jewelery while u r there…
…take it from a ridgewood gal
“ridgewood people are sn-bs!”
“why do you say that?”
“they’re rich…”
a very preppy, rich town with so many sn-bs. there are also some nice people though. most people after they grow up here will move out because this place is sometimes sickening. the definition of rich kids is displayed here every day.
look for polos,and tiffany jewlery.
an amazing town in bergen county, new jersey that is next to wykoff, midland park, paramus, and glen rock.

we have 9 elementary schools, two middle schools (one east of train track, one west), and one high school, which is one of the best public schools (and better than some private ones) in the country. we have a very good musical program, along with outstanding academic and athletic programs.

we are mostly rich, but not all preppy or sn-bbish as many people unfairly stereotype us. most of us are nice people.

we have a train station, a library and a lake/pool (even though it is a disgusting one.) we have a town area with a lot of shops and restaurants in the center of ridgewood.

many of our residents work in ridgewood or commute to new york everyday. it is close enough to visit new york in less than an hour, but it is far enough to be in a peaceful suburb.

some famous people that came from/live in ridgewood are harlan coben, jeff feagles, lawrence frank, mc paul barman, frankie muniz, and jordin sparks.
let’s go to quiznos, in ridgewood.
99% of the people that live in ridgewood are rich and sn-bby. the funny thing is that that more then half of them try to come off as “gansta” or “poor”. everyone knows they sell the pot behind starbucks.
anyway, the other half are the ones who take advantage of their parents and spend money like it comes out of there b-tt. they all look like clones of eachother in their polos, uggs, designer bags, ect. its the nicest town and nothing ever happens in ridgewood, not even close to the real “gansta life” as many ridgewood people think that they live.
