That's great, I remember reading about your job troubles a while back, so it's nice to see a turn around for you.

Good luck

Hi OAQ,
Northvale is in northeast NewJersey, near the Hudson River, and should be a nice area. You'll be close to NYC and the fun that the Capital of the Universe offers young people. I grew up about 15 miles from Northvale.
Regards,
Alan

If you can't find night life or places to eat in that area something is wrong. You can't go 5 feet without running into something. If you can't find it there it is not made or does not exist. Good luck with the move.

Ridgewood has some great restaurants. Northvale is a very nice area. If you go a bit south of there towards Paramus/Hackensack there are a ton of places to go out to. The whole Bergen Cty region has a lot of great places.Plus as mentioned before NYC is a stones throw away. During the summer head south to the Jersey shore or go east to the Hamptons.
