New Jersey Real Estate
News and Information
Englewood Real Estate
Englewood is situated in the southern part of Bergen County's
Northern Valley region, just north of the great Jersey meadowlands,
three miles west of the George Washington Bridge and ten miles from
Times Square. It occupies 4.9 square miles descending from a height
of 410 feet on the western slope of the Palisades to almost sea level
in the valley.
At present Englewood is a sophisticated city which combines much of
its historic grace and charm with an exciting cosmopolitan atmosphere.
It has many contrasts - between elaborate Victorian mansions and modern
low-rise condominiums, between quiet tree-lined residential neighborhoods
and the bustling central business district, between large estates and
affordable apartments. Its proximity to New York City continues to be
a significant feature, but it also has a vital and distinctive character
of its own, forged from the richly heterogeneous backgrounds, interests
and talents of its citizens.
Englewood's population is far more diverse than that of most suburbs,
including many of its Bergen County neighbors. Occupations range from
highly paid professionals to unskilled trades. Due to the proximity
of New York hospitals and the ever-expanding Englewood Hospital and
Medical Center, doctors abound. There are also many lawyers, business
men and women, engineers and professors, as well as a number of artists,
musicians, and entertainment and sports figures. One of many distinquished
residents was Dizzy Gillespie, after whom a downtown area is named.
