Ridgewood is a medium size suburban community in Bergen County. Ridgewood is located approximately 30 minutes outside of Midtown Manhattan. The population of Ridgewood is approximately 25,000 according to the 2000 United States Census. Ridgewood is an very wealthy town. Expect to see a lot of BMW's, Mercedes Benz's, Lexus's. For a nice home expect to pay over $1 million. The taxes are extreme and when I mean extreme, it's really extreme. The downtown area which is also know as " town" by locals is full of great shops and Zagat-rated restaurants. Town is the place to be if you a Ridgewood kid or a townie( a person from another town who spends a good amount of time in Ridgewood). The definition of rich kids are displayed here everyday. Many kids in Ridgewood are preps. Expect to see polos and tiffany jewelry. Also in recent years the teenagers have become some-what hipster. Many kids shop at Urban Outfitters, Free People and Anthropology. Most Ridgewood kids go thru a Abercrombie and Fitch and a Hollister phase at the beginning of middle school and it ends in the middle of their 7th grade year. Most kids try to come off as poor or ghetto but there is an extremely mall amount of poor and ghetto people in Ridgewood, there may even be no ghetto people. The "ghettoest" area of Ridgewood is South Broad Street which not really ghetto but it is where most of the black people of Ridgewood live which is at about 1% of the total population. Asians are the biggest minority in Ridgewood. Pot is a big issue in Ridgewood as it is in many towns but it is slightly increased because of the amount of wealth and the easier availability to buy drugs. Everyone knows what goes on behind Starbucks. This town is gossip, gossip, gossip. The schools are overflowing with it, even with teachers are in on the gossip. The people who are the worst then the kids with the gossip: the moms. All Ridgewood moms have a ton of botox and fake boobs. They go into Lilly Pulitzer on E. Ridgewood Avenue and gossip about all the other moms and the kids in town. Ridgewood is a big sport town. But no sport in Ridgewood could compare to our supreme sport: lacrosse. Lacrosse is the number 1 sport in the town. It's so popular we even have a whole day devoted to it, Lax Day. Now to the schools, Ridgewood has one of the finest education systems in the state, probably the country too. The district is made up of 6 elementary schools, 2 middle schools, and 1 high school. Every parent, BOE member and school administrator believes that every child is "Special." In high school, we don't get F's, we get E's. Ridgewood is ranked at #15 on Money Magazine's 25 top-earning towns in the USA. Most of the parents, manly the dads, work in New York City. Overall, Ridgewood probably the best town to grow up in New Jersey, possibly the US and possibly the world. I love Ridgewood!
Sam from Wyckoff: Hey wanna go to Ridgewood tonight and go to Starbucks and Rite Aid and hang with other townies?
Josh from Wyckoff: Yeah dude! We have nothing in our town so we gotta go to Ridgewood, they have everything!

Get the Ridgewood mug.Originally called "Yellowhook". A largely middle class neighborhood in the southwest corner of the New York City borough of Brooklyn. With its strong family presence, it is not uncommon to see third or fourth generation families living in the region. Bay Ridge has been known for its large Irish, Italian, Greek and Scandinavian population, but like other areas in South/Southwest Brooklyn, it has recently seen a large influx of Russian immigrants, and a smaller amount of Chinese. Bay Ridge also has many international restaurants and bars, especially along 3rd and 5th Avenue. It is home to Fort Hamilton, the Verrazano Narrows Bridge, the 69th street Pier (and it's 9/11 monument), Owl's Head Park, and John Paul Jones Park a.k.a. "Cannonball Park".
Contrary to popular belief, Bay Ridge is not inherently a rich or poor neighborhood, and most of the mansions that some may see as part of the neighborhood are either landmarks or are actually part of nearby Dyker Heights.

Specifically, someone with a baby's emotional maturity, the stature of a midget, who is raging uncontrollably. The result is usually both disturbing and hilarious.
Kate: Hey, check out that football player on the field. He keeps aggressively snuggling after the whistle's blown.
Mary: Oh my gosh, why is he raging?! He makes me frightened by his tiny ferocity.
Kate: Oh, it's no big deal. He's just clearly your typical ribget.

Get the cheese ridge mug.A southwestern Connecticut town of about 25,000, known to kids who live there as "the Ridge". Not as preppy as Greenwich, not as wealthy as Darien. There is no crime, so the cops just dick around all day and bust house parties at night. You either hang out at Genoa (italian restaurant), or if you like cutting yourself you hang out by Dunkin. Then you drive around for two hours and end up at someones house right before it gets busted. But if you think there's nothing going on in Ridgefield, just check out any of the nearby towns - Redding, Wilton, Weston, Bethel - theres even less happening. It's Connecticut, dude.
The kids aren't any different from your average connecticut kids, except maybe a little richer. So yes they're preppy, mostly white and probably dont know what hit them the first time they leave their bubble, but theyre not all assholes. Weed is easy to get, alcohol isn't as easy but thats fine cause they steal it from their parents' liquor cabinets anyway.
Ridgefield High School is legit and is consistently ranked in the top 15 high schools in CT. Anyone who has said otherwise, look it up retard. A decent percentage of kids make it to the Ivy league every year. A lot more go to UConn or WestConn.
Otherwise, nothing really special about this town. The people who diss it are probably from Wilton or just have a stick up their ass. I could write about the Battle of Ridgefield or some historical shit, but thats kinda gay.
