Living in North Bergen, NJ
If you’re someone who craves big city culture and amenities but doesn’t necessarily want to deal with the crowds and hustle every single day, a New York City suburb like North Bergen is a great place to explore. A quick bus ride over the Hudson River puts you in the heart of Manhattan.
But there’s plenty to keep you occupied in and around North Bergen. The 167-acre James J. Braddock Park is the locals’ favorite oasis. It includes eight miles of walking paths, the magnificent 16-acre Woodcliff Lake, numerous sports fields (football, volleyball, handball, baseball, tennis, and more), and playgrounds. During the summer, residents of all ages cool off at the North Bergen pool, then head over to the city’s weekly free outdoor movie offerings.
You’re also a stone’s throw from the Meadowlands Sports Complex, home to the New York Giants and Jets, as well as the New Meadowlands Market — a year-round outdoor market featuring hundreds of vendors. Here’s another big draw: North Bergen has a mix of excellent restaurants that reflect the diversity of the neighborhood — Italian, Cuban, Colombian, Peruvian, tapas, and more.
The annual weather in North Bergen, NJ, is fairly seasonal — warm, wet summers and chilly, snowy winters are typical. July temperatures peak at around 85 degrees, while January’s average low is 28 degrees.
Settling down in a location so close to New York City comes at a price. The cost of living in North Bergen is 41% more than in the rest of the country and 14% more than the NJ average.
