Ridgefield

The small borough of Ridgefield is located in the southeast corner of Bergen County, New Jersey. Its 11,255 residents and 2.61 square miles give it an average population density, and the community has enjoyed modest growth since the turn of the century. Both the New Jersey Turnpike (I-95) and the New York, Susquehanna and Western Railway line run through the western half of the borough. It is surrounded by the following communities: Palisades Park, Cliffside Park, Fairview, Edgewater, Fort Lee, Ridgefield Park, Little Ferry and Leonia. Nearly 41% of residents relocated from other countries, primarily the geographical areas of Asia, Europe, and Latin America. The remainder of Ridgefield's citizens can trace their ancestral roots back to equally diverse Italian, Irish, German, Arab, Greek, or local origin. Just less than 53% of the borough's population is married, and nearly 6% are divorcees.
