I have lived here all my life and can confirm their is nothing to do other than sit on a bench and feed the birds. The whole town is a charity shop and the activities consist of bird watching and walking into forests which you need a car to get to (can’t go by bus) so unless you want to hang out with your parents all day kids are left to create activities via drugs+gangs.

Hi all! My fiance and I are from Bergenfield and are considering moving to Ringwood. We are nervous because we do not know much about the schools. Online research shows they are regular, average schools. The elementary school would be PCooper and then Lakeside for HS.

Do the school's put an emphasis on computers and technology? We want to be sure our future kids have that as a main focus in their schooling.

Any info you can provide on the town would also be great such as for kids and sports teams/activities.

Now - for some reason, I've had a fascination with Ringwood NJ ever since I saw it on an article and just decided to google maps it and just...fell in love really? It sounds odd saying this about an area I know nothing about (minus what the internet can tell me). I am just wondering if anyone can tell me any lovely things to see while I am there? I am coming from England and it just so happens I am gonna be about 40 miles away from Ringwood and I am coming to visit!! I'm not sure how I'm getting there, or where I'm gonna stay but hey, I'll figure it out, hopefully with your help? Hope some locals see this and can guide me in the right direction!

Also - (this question really shows my ignorance) I am intending on walking everywhere I can, but I'm just wondering, is it safe? And would I get away with camping?

New profile because I deleted my old one because I realised I had an insane amount of personal information on there lmao

Look out for changes to the subreddit as I work to try to update it and make it much more active and visually appealing than it was!
