About Rockleigh

Rockleigh is the smallest borough in Bergen County by population, a quiet, exclusive residential community tucked along the New York State border in the northeastern corner of the county. With only a few hundred residents spread across large, wooded estates, Rockleigh offers a level of privacy, open space, and natural beauty that is virtually unmatched in Bergen County. The borough has no commercial district and no school system of its own — it is purely residential. Rockleigh is also home to the former Rockleigh Country Club and several corporate campuses along the Palisades Interstate Parkway corridor.

Highlights

  • Smallest municipality by population in Bergen County
  • Large, wooded estate properties with exceptional privacy
  • Adjacent to Palisades Interstate Park for hiking and nature
  • No commercial development — purely residential character
  • Minutes from the Alpine and Tappan areas along the NY border
