Parsippany, NJ United States of America

The name Parsippany comes from the Lenape Native American sub-tribe, from the word parsipanong, which means “the place where the river winds through the valley.” Parsippany-Troy Hills is the most populous municipality in Morris County and the only one in the county with a full-time mayor. It was incorporated as a township by an act of the New Jersey Legislature on March 12, 1928, from portions of Hanover Township, following a May 9, 1928 referendum that split off both East Hanover Township and Parsippany-Troy Hills from Hanover Township. Since 2006, Parsippany-Troy Hills has been consistently recognized by Money magazine as one of the Best Places to Live in the United States.
