River Edge is a borough in Bergen County, in the U.S. state of New Jersey. As of the 2020 United States census, the borough's population was 12,049,[11][12] an increase of 709 (+6.3%) from the 2010 census count of 11,340,[21][22] which in turn reflected an increase of 394 (+3.6%) from the 10,946 counted in the 2000 census.[23]
The community was originally incorporated as the borough of Riverside by an act of the New Jersey Legislature on June 30, 1894, from portions of Midland Township, based on the results of a referendum held the previous day. On December 1, 1930, the borough's name was changed to River Edge.[24] The borough was formed during the "Boroughitis" phenomenon then sweeping through Bergen County, in which 26 boroughs were formed in the county in 1894 alone.[25] The borough was named for its location along the Hackensack River.[26]
