We Love Our Home In Ramsey, New Jersey 4.5 rating By Anonymous ( May 16, 2018) Ramsey, NJ is a great place to live! We have lived here for 10 years, and we are very happy. The homes are beautiful, and the properties are spacious. The location is close to everything, yet set apart and in the best area. The best part are the tree-lined streets in Ramsey. Ther ...Read More e is a convenient downtown shopping district!

The shops are upscale and varied. There are many restaurants, all with their own flair. I have eaten at each of them, and they are worth a try! A nice casual place we enjoy is Brady's at the Station. Ramsey has a train which takes us into Manhattan. It was so so the bus, so getting to work is easy. The highways are nearby, and it's so convenient. We love the feeling of community here. My entire family loves living here, and we would never move! The schools are excellent here. They really cater to the kids, with sports and after school activities. Read Less
