A town in Essex County, NJ that was the ultimate cool place to grow up in the 60, 70s, and 80s. It was mostly Italian and Jewish families. Everyone knew each other.

It is still a good town, but has a much bigger feel than in the past. It is extremely diverse, yet stays segregated by neighborhood. The whole town attends one high school.

Has overpriced homes and sky-high taxes.

West Orange is in Essex County. This is where the 1st light bulb was made by edison homes. this Town is quite confused with the down the hill and up the hill. Normally the " white rich kids live up the hill" and the " ghetto black kids live down the hill" and they all go to the same highschool, but then again down the hill, for some of the richest kids maybe in all of new jersey live down the hill. Most kids are not origanally from West Orange either most come from east orange, newark, or even livingston. The town is filled with orthedox Jews and ghetto ass black people.t LETS JUST SAY THE TOWN IS MOTHER EFFING CONFUSED. ; they love to start drama with other towns and they also go out with a alot of kids from other town. Livingston must be their rivals of all time. South Mountain Arena is their main atraction unless you count on southmountain reservation. when you think of west orange you think of an upgrade, well think again.
You are from west orange, are you a jew , or ghetto?

Ghetto ass school filled with fags, annoying Haitian and Dominican bitches, the common hoodrat whore you'll find everywhere you look, and the annoying ass ghetto males. (And the morbidly obese freshman hoe that waddles in the halls everyday) Don't forget the fight that happens every 1.5 days, the fatass principal got knocked to the floor one time trying to pull two hispanics apart. And someone tell that animal behavior teacher bitch that she's the laziest whore to ever step foot in that shithole, while the Spanish teacher is a pedofile that has his students burp and kiss people on video for a grade (Jesus Christ I wish this were fake).

The hallways always smell like weed and shit, and the infrastructure is at least a hundred and fifty years old. And some of the classrooms on the shitty part look like catholic torture dungeons from the inquisition.

Drop a hydrogen bomb on this fucking place. Ratchets everywhere.
