About Saddle River

Saddle River is a small, affluent Bergen County borough known for estate-style homes, privacy, and a leafy setting along the Saddle River. European settlement traces back to the 1600s, after Lenape land sales reshaped the area. Today the borough is one of North Jersey's most exclusive residential communities, with large lots, winding roads, and very little commercial activity. It feels deliberately residential and secluded, even though Manhattan and the rest of the New York metro are still within reach.
