Borough of Montvale

Montvale is a picturesque borough nestled in northern Bergen County, New Jersey, bordering the State of New York. Part of the New York City metropolitan area, Montvale boasts a thriving community with a population of 8,436 as per the 2020 United States census—a testament to our growth and vitality. Founded on August 31, 1894, during the "Boroughitis" phenomenon in Bergen County, Montvale has a rich history shaped by the amalgamation of Orvil Township and Washington Township. Over the years, our borough expanded its boundaries through strategic acquisitions from neighboring townships, including Orvil, Washington, and Upper Saddle River. Montvale, often hailed as "The Pride of the Pascack Valley," reflects its name derived from the surrounding topography. We continue to embrace our heritage and foster a close-knit community spirit. Join us in celebrating our history, growth, and the unique charm that makes Montvale a standout destination in the region.
