A small town in Westchester County, NY that happens to have higher taxes causeing the more wealthy people to be the ones who can afford to live there. NOT to be mistaken for a JAP town.

A small town in New York with mostly finacially comfortable people living in it. Most people are very nice, but it is more than easy to find JAPs and even some CAPs. A lot of people are spoiled, but they can still be nice.

An extremely small town in Westchester County, New York. Briarcliff is known for being snobby, Jewish, and rich. I happen to live in Briarcliff, and I agree with a lot of these stereotypes, but they are very generalized. In Briarcliff, you need to search hard to find decent people. The 7th graders go to a shitload of bar and bat mitzvahs. Many kids the 8th-10th grades are hooked on weed. Briarcliff is filled with cliques. The most stereo-typical Briarcliff kids wear Abercrombie / Hollister / Delia's / Lacoste / Victoria's Secret / Juicy / etc. nearly every day. Their clothes are whatever is in style at the time. The girls all have pin straight hair and are almost always drinking an expensive drink from Starbucks that could easily be bought at the Moonbean Cafe in town, the center of the Manor and a universal smoking spot.

A small town in the middle of Westchester, New York. A stereotypical Briarcliff person is believed to be rich, smart, and enjoys partying. While Briarcliff does have one of the best school districts in the country, the residents are not all geniuses, and Briarcliff does have less wealthy residents. Although these residents are not poor as in city standards, many Briarcliff residents do struggle with money due to super high taxes. It has wealthy residents as well as residents who are going bankrupt and losing their jobs. Most people only live there while their children are attending the school, and once the children graduate, they move away.
It is a common misconception that all Briarcliff teenagers spend every weekend partying. Yes there are many kids who do that, as in every town, but there are also many kids who don't drink or do drugs and spend their weekends relaxing and hanging out in the small town.
A popular story about the town is that the very last building on the street (not the Patio) is cursed, as recently, anyone who has owned that property has either died or experienced a death in the family causing them to sell the place. Not 1 owner has been able to hold on to the property for longer than a year since the owner of a soap and perfume store in that location, died. It is rumored she died in the building and has haunted it since.
Briarcliff is just like any other town, but a lot of people like to insult it because it has some wealthier residents.

Another word for a town filled with stuck up, snobby, A&F people who walk around with sticks up their asses and think they shit nuggets of gold.
