My home town of Paramus is the best. As a child, I enjoyed all the activities the town has to offer from the Easter Egg Hunt, Van Saun Park, the Paramus town pool, Tree Lighting event and National Night Out. Most of all I enjoyed all the recreation sports activities from baseball, soccer to basketball, all year round activities for children of all ages. Now that I am older, I enjoy the malls, movie theaters and restaurants. Paramus has one of the best malls in the state – The Garden State Plaza.
Paramus is located in a great place, close enough to the New York City to enjoy all the city life has to offer. Most of all, I enjoyed my home, my family and all the best friends I met in this town. I am fortunate to have grown up in a great town and have nothing negative to say about Paramus.

Paramus is a suburb located in New Jersey. What I like about Paramus is it's a small, quiet little peaceful place that's full of parks, recreational activities, eateries and beautiful scenary. It is nestled between several surrounding surburbs which gives you a feeling of warmth and togetherness.
It's also an excellent place to enjoy outdoor activities. The streets are safe for jogging, bike riding and the casual stroll.

Pretty nice but average suburban town. Good schools, nice access to highways, decently quiet. Also has plenty of access to retail stores and restaurants, especially Garden State Plaza.
