Area Code(s): 201 973 Time Zone: Eastern |
Bergen County is New Jersey’s most populous county, but it has no large cities. Hackensack, the county seat, is the largest city at 43,000 residents. The county is home to 70 municipalities, mostly boroughs and townships; the only other cities are Englewood and Garfield. Bergen County is part of the New York City metropolitan area and is connected to Manhattan (New York County) by the George Washington Bridge across the Hudson River. Other New York counties across the river to the east are Bronx County and Westchester County. The northern border is with Rockland County, also in New York State. Bordering counties in New Jersey are Passaic to the west and Essex and Hudson to the south. Elevations range from sea level along the Hudson River to 1,164 feet at Bald Mountain in the northwestern township of Mahwah. The first permanent European settlers were the Dutch in 1660; just four years later, the territory was taken over the English, and Bergen County was established in 1683. Its proximity to New York City contributes to its high levels of per capita income and household wealth, as well as its cultural and ethnic diversity. Check out the categories below to find a multitude of public records and documents, including tax records, marriage licenses, and sex offender records. [1]
