fort lee and fair lawn are the main ones im familiar with. i know there are some in woodcliff lake. ..this is all in northern jersey. there are others in central jersey i think in east brunswick, marlboro, old bridge, manalapan etc. Check with the synagogues.
If you're just looking for Russian-Jewish descent, pretty much the entirety of northeastern edge of Bergen county from Fort Lee on up to the New York state line (and beyond) has a lot, and there's a good chunk of people spread through the rest of the county too (although more-so north of route 4 than south generally) but if you're looking for a large amount of people who retain some of the off-the-boat Russian Jewish culture (Russian language, food, etc.), and not just people of retirement age, you're talking Fair Lawn.
Well, we are in Paramus, and so are few other families too. However, bigger concentration of Russian Jews, and Russian-speaking folks you'll find in Fair Lawn, but also Glen Rock, Rochelle Park, River Edge, Teanek etc. If you are looking for anything South of Bergen county there is a huge concentration of Russian Jews in Marlboro and Manalapan ( I believe it's Monmouth County?).
BTW, we also moved to Paramus after many years living in Brooklyn. Not sure if it;s relivant, but I figured it could be b/c it's a part of your screename.
Please let me know if you are interested in realtor services. I personally have nothing to do with real estate, but could recommend a real estate agent who worked with us back in 2008 when we moved here. Very professional, we were very happy with her services.
I am Ludwik Kowalski from Fort Lee. My autobiography, "Diary of a Former Communist," has finally been translated into Polish and into Russian. Both are freely available online. The link to the Russian translation is:
P.S.
Why is this book free? Because writing it was a moral obligation, toward my parents and towards millions of other victims of Stalinism. I want it to be widely known. Please help me to find potential readers. How can this be done? By talking with your friends, either face-to-face or via the Internet (email, Facebook, etc.)
Perhaps someone will publish a formal online review of the book, in some Russian newspaper or journal. This is likely to be an effective way to find readers. I will happy to accept an invitation to a talk about my progressive evolution from one extreme to another, for example at a book club or other gathering.
Comments from readers will be appreciated (see my email address above).
Happy New Year,
Ludwik Kowalski
