Some younger residents, of course, worry about expanding commercialism. Says the Chamber of Commerce's Durst: "We try to point out to them that over 50% of village taxes are paid by the merchants."

"We can't even move around here," says one resident. "So we usually head over to Bridgewater Commons Mall. You know, to shop at Macy's and Brooks Brothers." Apparently, it's all a matter of perspective. When you live in the middle of a bargain, full price is a new kind of kick.
