A beautiful town, probably the MOST beautiful town in all of the luxurious Fairfield County. Its charming Main Street is lined with a plethora of clothing boutiques, restaurants of fine dining, pricey jewelry stores, glamorous flower shops, expensive hair salons, expensive toy stores, and fine wine shops. If you cannot already tell, this town and ALL of it's people (even the Ridgefield "poor") are extremely wealthy in comparison with the rest of the country as well as CT’s seven other counties. This wealth is evident everywhere you look. It is especially evident in the houses as well as in the people. Many of the houses are old colonial homes or either newly built custom-designed multi-million dollar mansions. The people also carry around an air of pretension, though a majority of Ridgefield’s residents are welcoming. Since the children have a lot of money (both from their parents and jobs they are forced to get to learn responsibility) they are able to afford pricey drugs such as heroin and cocaine, as well as a wide assortment of alcoholic beverages. Though this is a problem, as Fairfield County is the nation’s county with the highest drug and alcohol consumption, it can be overlooked by the great achievements made by the town’s students. Some achievements are that a good percentage of the high school seniors ea...

The original model for what would later become the Homestead and Grid City Acts. A scenic, dyspeptic Connecticut town engineered on the elliptic principle that the distance from any given house A to any store open after 9 B summed with the distance from A to something to do C will always equal D, where D is the distance to New York (of some mathematic curiousity, this will also always be the distance to Wiggles).

All the kids have tried pot once, cause its easier to get than alcohol. Everyone gets a 4.0 or your considered an idiot. Everyone hates eachother, talks behind everyone elses back, and everyone has money. If your considered poor in this town, its cause your only a millionare and not a multimillionare.

The highschool here is terrible and overrated even though its one of the top in the country. All the girls where mini skirts, have sex at 14, and all go to colleges like boston college and um boston college. Sometimes boston university, too!

You either hang out behind geneoa, starbucks, dunkin donuts, or yanity. The police here are bored since theres no crime so if your carrying a small amount of alcohol you will be jailed for life.

Basically this town is terrible, its filled with white people, and maybe you'll find two or three asian kids around if you look hard. Everyone is an overachiever, and you either go to yale or OD on cocaine or heroine because your family hates you because you di...

Oh, please...
Most Ridgefielders are white and wealthy; however, there are families (like mine) who drive a normal car, make less than six figures, both parents work, kid works, have values, try to understand the world. The high school is competitive, but high schools have forever been populated by popular jocks, drinkers/druggies, and everyone else who feels left out. Ridgefield is like many other burbs; just more so.

Regardless of the other definitions of the town of Ridgefield in Connecticut, it really isn't much different or worse than any other suburban town in the United States. Sure, we are probably wealthier than many other towns, but behavior and people wise, we're nothing out of the ordinary.

Ridgefield is a town in Connecticut's Fairfield County. There are six elementary schools, two middle schools, one high school, and two private schools. Ridgefield has some of the best public schools in the country. The main street has many small (and extremely pricey) boutiques. There is also a candy shop and a pizza shop, where most of the kids in the middle schools and high school hang out after school on Fridays because there isn't a whole lot to do here. There is also a park in town, which is a popular teen hang-out spot as well.

Sports play a big role in Ridgefield. The students do have a lot of school spirit, but what's wrong with that? Ridgefield High School has relatively high scores on standardized test as well. Yes, and there are also the kids who drink and smoke, but honestly, what town doesn't have kids like that? Wherever you go, teens will always be experimenting with drugs and alcohol. The cops, however, don't really have much to do, so they will punish you severely for relatively minor infractions of the law. And contrary to popular beliefs, the schools in Ridgefield aren't populated with only jocks and sluts. Sure, we have our fair share, but what school do...

A relatively small town in NJ. The majority of the town has a lot of $ unless they live in the garden apartments. Every other house is a Korean family, and the public schools are only known for their outstanding music program. Everyone knows each other, and people talk behind everyone's backs. The only decent places to hang out is the park and the pool.

Ridgefield is a village town, we have no fast foods or chains,yes that means no McDonalds. We have 10 banks and 10 Italian resturrants. We have so many Banks beacuse everyone in this town people have multiple accounts beacuse they have so much money. Just driving into town you can see by the houses and cars people have enough money to stop world hunger. Our Main street is filled with boutiques that will cost you a small fortune to shop at. Your not aloud to have neon signs, only "open" signs. We have no boweling alley, no movie theater and nothing that would interest night life. Our nickname is "Richfield". To live here you have to have money, what we consider poor is a millionare. The houses range from 500,000 to 35 million. We have some celebrities. If your lucky you might find a condo at 400,000.

Our school system is rated the best around but if you asked the teenagers that live it, it different from the ratings. Every high schooler has tried pot once and they all drink alcohol regularly. Most kids do alot of drugs beacuse we have money from daddy and we spend it on drugs. The high school has dealers, for awhile it was the security guards till they got caught. We smoke in school, no one really cares. No one gets suspended. The high school is filled wit...
