    "They are community events but not for the African Americans such as my family which I feel there should be more recreational activities for the kids in the community no matter what race they are to give them something to do so that they can stay off of the streets and out of trouble "

    "I live here fore 7 years in this area me and family help my neighborhood clean the snow back yard wherever they need we can help you this I love my neighborhood ..... "
  • Mikali
    "Although Paterson has a bad rap there's a lot of positive culture and history here. From great restaurants of all nationalities to unique nature like the great falls to happening nightlife Paterson has or all. With any city there's good and bad neighborhoods but it's worth a visit. But would I move here? No. And I say that because the cost of living the tri-state area is ridiculous compared to other parts of the world. However if you want an unlimited amount of opportunities financially, this is a prime location."
