Ridgewood Schools are great and performance is not declining in comparison to Tenefly and Summit and other schools. I really wish this person would stop with the fake news. By nthe way, all these school districts are great and all our taxes are high. Ridgewood is not some kind of outlier and we are not declining. Be upset about high taxes but stop with the BS that we are somehow worse than we are. The problem is with the STATE of NJ, and NY and CT and Mass, and the entire northeast.

It is the indifference of residents that is killing this town. Spring break or no spring break, those who are interested to vote would have found a way to do it. People who move here anew just do not care to get involved in local issues. They come mainly from metropolitan area and have the typical indifferent mindset. They are under the false impression that everything is prefect in this place they chose to live especially the schools. Half the village has no idea what high density housing is and how the place is being transformed into a mini city or how the RHS is approaching 2000 students and is the size of a small college. Developers and narrow minded local politicians love this kind of place where they can easily make $$$ without any major trouble.
” I think you can have background checks and supervision galore but how can you possibly know everything about a person? He’s a 27 year old guy using Tinder like so many others. It’s kind of scary in the sense that there’s NO way to know what people are doing or are really like. It’s too bad to have a stain on the RPD because in general it seems like we have a mostly good department. “
” So, you raised your children here, got the benefit of an excellent education, a town without metal detectors or gang violence. I assume they got into good colleges. You are living in a house worth probably assessed over $1.6 million. Your taxes are about 60% of what you would pay in most of Essex County. If you work in New York City, there are few towns that provide a better lifestyle with a shorter commute than Ridgewood. We have a great downtown (true, maybe not as good as it used to be, but neither is anywhere else, and I agree that the high parking fees are ridiculous). As for the leaders, they have been elected for issue-specific reasons, but that is the responsibility of the voters (and especially the NON-voters). Ridgewood isn’t perfect by any means, but it isn’t nearly as bad as everyone is making it out to be. But if you disagree, lots of people are ready to buy your house, which would undoubtedly be priced higher than most surrounding towns, and marketed highlighting Ridgewood’s many amenities and qualities. I hope James’ potential purchasers don’t read his blog entry! “

Ridgewood NJ, its seems we write this story over and over . Raymond Gonzalez claims a Ridgewood church, aka World Mission Society Church of God on Godwin Avenue which has been called “cult-like” by some former followers, and allegedly advocates doomsday prophesies, forced abortions and tax fraud, also issues non disclosure agreements to silence dissenters.
Gonzalez signed a non disclosure agreement in early 2012, under the belief he would be “transported into heaven during the apocalypse” later that year, and “would no longer be living in a human body on earth,” according to a Superior Court lawsuit.
