About Emerson

Emerson is a quiet, family-oriented borough in the northwestern part of Bergen County. With tree-lined streets, well-maintained homes, and a strong school system, Emerson embodies classic suburban living. The borough was carved from Washington Township in 1903 and named after author Ralph Waldo Emerson.
