West Paterson, NJ

A town in Passaic County (meaning North NJ) next to a ghetto town called Paterson. Paterson used to be nice, but then a lot of hispanics and negative-charged people moved in giving it and WEST Paterson a bad name. Paterson people think WP is lame or boring b/c its pretty safe and relativly friendly.

A lot of Paterson people move to W.Paterson when they get enough money to move into the apartments (that are ratehr going downhill) and enroll their kids in WP schools (or enroll when they are still in Paterson).

If you call West Paterson 'Paterson' a lot of people (especially older, lifelong residents) will get pissed and correct you since WP isn't a ghetto full of gangs, drugs but families, some of whom have been there for a long time.


My friend in town recently told me they voted to change the name to Woodland Park or soemthing with the initals WP to try and knock-off the confusion.

WP also has the same area-code as Little Falls (another next-door town) so along with Paterson, some people mistake WP for Little Falls, but that isn't nearly as bad since LF is also a nice little town with a cutesy little waterfall which stems its name.

My grandparents hate when people mistake West Paterson for Paterson.

PatersonKid: Ahhh man. Dis town is like...so got-damn lame!
WPkid: Don't you belong in Paterson??

West Paterson, NJ is a pretty nice place to grow up.

William Paterson University

This school is definitely not known for its strong academic standards, and the kids who go here hardly made 1000 on their SATs, if at all. Although it can be fun from time to time because drinking and smoking is huge in the dorms, and there's the occasional frat party (they kick ass in the beginning of the year, then die down), the weekends are boring because most people go home to work or they're just bored. If more people stayed on campus, it wouldn't be so boring, NOW would it??

The kids here weren't the brightest of the bunch in HS (besides me - top 10% of my class, what what!). They don't even know who William Paterson was, or what a Pioneer (our mascot) is. However, most of them are kick ass and chill people who know how to have a good time when they want to.

William Paterson is a party school, a step above community college, five steps below your average state school.
