  • 2010 Census Community Profile
    Tenafly, New Jersey Community Profile Based on June 2010 Census Data Borough Overview Tenafly is a borough in Bergen County, New Jersey, United States. As of the 2010 Census, the borough population was 14390. Tenafly is an affluent suburb of New York City. The first Europeans settlers in Tenafly were the Dutch, who began to populate the area during the late 17th century. The name "Tenafly" itself is derived from the early-modern Dutch phrase "Tiene Vly" or "Ten Swamps" which was given by Dutch settlers in 1688. Tenafly was incorporated as a borough on January 24, 1894 by an Act of the New Jersey Legislature from portions of the now-defunct Palisades Township, based on the results of a referendum held the previous day, at the height of the Borough phenomenon through Bergen County at the time. New Jersey Monthly magazine ranked Tenafly as #7 of the best places to live in New Jersey in its 2013 ranking of the “Top Ten Towns in New Jersey”. Additional information can be reviewed at the following website: http://www.bestplaces.net/city/new_jersey/tenafly Tenafly's street plan and overall development were largely determined by its hills, its valleys and its tall trees, which give the borough its special charm. The eastern part of the borough is customarily referred to as the "East Hill" for its higher elevation in relation to the rest of the borough. There, the terrain rises dramatically to the east of the downtown area, terminating at the New Jersey Palisades, overlooking the Hudson River. Nearby is the Tenafly Nature Center, located at 313 Hudson Avenue.
