A chill town in bergan county where 95% of the kids have a lot of money and the other 5% are pretty wealthy, too. Only half of them are stuck up and bratty, while the other half spend most of their time trying to avoid the brats. A lot of nice houses and cars can be found here. It's home to the Market Basket and FAMS, the middle school that used to be so cool but now sucks because of the gay 2004 8th graders... it's got a subway, a stop and shop, franklin lakes bagels, piazella, hallmark, and Ramapo Highschool, which FL shares with Wyckoff and some of Oakland. Pretty much, a boring town. Kids are called "flakers" and like to call it "flakes". A lot of the kids like to hang out in
"There's nothing to do in Franklin Lakes.. ever"
"That bitch in the Mercedes had to be from Franklin Lakes."

A town in Bergen County were a lot of rich people live but there are also some not so rich people. Some kids are very stuck up and treat people like crap but there are others that are very nice and smart and could care less what designer stuff they have. People from other towns make of the "flakers" and call them stuck up but all the stuck up kids go to ramapo so if you know a flaker that goes to hills or some other school, they're probably not stuck up.
-Did you see that stuck up kid from Franklin Lakes over there?
-Yeah. They go to Ramapo.
