Things to Do

Bergen County is home to many residents who work in New York City and the site of historical, beautiful homes that offer a slice of the casual life style that comes from living in a smaller town. Its northeastern section of the Gateway Region is well known to people who are familiar to the area flying into Newark Liberty International Airport, offering a bird’s eye view of New Jersey.

Also known as the “Entrance to America,” it lies in the shadow of a distinctly American landmark, the Statue of Liberty. Enjoy the perks of Bergen County whether you live in Oradell or Hillsdale. You’ll find a great place to live with friendly people who’ll welcome you like family!

Each region has its own unique characteristics, with some being extremely urbanized and commercially more available while others lean toward the more casual, countryside atmosphere. No matter what you’re looking for, whether it’s a home nestled in the wilderness, a home of historical significance or just a getaway from the hustle and bustle of nearby New York City, Bergen County offers an alternative.
