I have lived in Hawthorne for nearly 16 years. I truly enjoy living in our town and all that it has to offer - 2 miles of walking paths throughout a beautifully restored park, town pool and tennis courts, a dog park, amazingly delicious restaurants! The overall friendliness of the town is terrific. As a real estate agent, I have helped 7 families move to Hawthorne, and all are happy that they did.
I like Hawthorne. It's a friendly, fun town! There are always new places opening up. I would change the public school system. We have the best education for special needs students, but the public schooling for everyone is not great. I also wish Hawthorne embraced homeschooled students more.
Hawthorne, New Jersey is a blend of the traditional and non-traditional, as there is a balance between the friendly, conservative Baby boomers and the Millennial newlyweds. Whereas the suburb is quiet, as its only semblance of nightlife is Shortway's Barn on Goffle Road, rest assured that safety is guaranteed by its hardworking police department. Hawthorne has a Bergen County atmosphere for a Passaic County price.
