There are plenty of things to do in Ridgefield Park. There is shopping, bowling, miniature golf, golf driving range, and more. I love going to the Ice House, where some Olympic athletes come to practice their skating! There are plenty of restaurants and coffee shops. The town has a large Main Street, and most of the shops are located there. There is a mixture of all ages, including graduate students from Fairleigh Dickinson. We have beautiful parks for picnicking, walking, and even tennis on free public courts! The town is so patriotic, with flags and parades. I'm proud to live here. Read Less
