Paramus has been great. I’ve been living here for a few years now and I’ve had no issues. My younger sibling goes to one of the middle schools here in town and has had no complaints as well! In fact the teachers have been great, especially when the students were all remote!
Very nice town. It can have a lot of congestion during rush hour but taxes are lower than other parts of bergen county, and there are plenty of nearby malls. This place generates the most retail income beating place like Beverly Hills and Soho. This area has great public schools although we go to a private school for religious reasons.
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.
