Paramus, Borough of Bergen County, United States.
Paramus spans across central Bergen County with residential neighborhoods connected by major roadways, situated 15 miles northwest of Manhattan.
The incorporation of Paramus as a borough occurred in 1922 when it separated from Midland Township, now known as Rochelle Park.
The name stems from the Lenape Native American Unami language, indicating a connection to the local indigenous heritage of the region.
The borough contains five large indoor shopping centers, generating over 6 billion dollars in annual retail sales within its ZIP code.
The enforcement of strict blue laws prohibits the sale of non-food items on Sundays, creating a distinct retail pattern in the region.
