I can't choose out of the 6, because each town is uniquely different in some ways. *scratches head* (Edit: And why 6 towns?)
Although, the town with the best downtown is definitely Ridgewood! Followed by Teaneck, and then, I like Edgewater for being very literal with their name.

I wouldn't say Paramus at all. Shopping is one thing, living is another. And Ridgewood is lovely, but honestly, I prefer Oradell and Hillsdale to Ridgewood. You have SOME downtown, you have trains, but it's not as BIG and bustling of a downtown as Ridgewood. The schools are good in all towns and taxes tend to be absurd in Ridgewood (although the others will not be prizes either...)
I also agree if we can go "off" your list Wyckoff is very nice as well.

I rep Fort Lee
It is a really cool town, great blend of urban and suburban, best access to NYC, it is the most Jersey-type town out of all the towns listed

How is Fort Lee the most Jersey-type town of those listed? All the towns by me are way different than Fort Lee (I live next to Hillsdale and Ridgewood, 10 minutes from Oradell). I like those much better and find they are very Jersey-like.
And DEFINITELY not Paramus.
