All of you new arrivals are being subsidized by the seniors. They have no kids in school , many of us NEVER have, but enjoy th ambiance of the village and get nothing for our taxes.
If more seniors decide to bail out for the nice 55 and over communities , our former homes will be filled with new residents with school age children. As such, it will dramatically increase your taxes as the already bloated school budget rises to accommodate the new students.
Ridgewood is a nice place because those of us long time residents care about this place, unlike the new crop of temporary residents that come here for 10 years then bail out when their kids are out of school, and beat feet back to NYC….sticking the rest of us with the tab for all of your “Yes” votes on the school budgets and spending on soccer fields and water park dreams.
