A peaceful community with minimal traffic in Passaic County
Though it’s surrounded by denser towns, North Haledon has maintained a peaceful, remote vibe. “It’s a small town with a tight-knit community,” says Joseph Simone, a real estate agent with Howard Hanna Rand Realty who grew up in North Haledon. “I think there are three lights and two main roads in the entire area.” The borough of about 9,000 people sits near several nature preserves, which shelter the community from heavy traffic. A small main road offers restaurants and shopping, but more options are in the surrounding towns of Wayne and Wyckoff. Most people leave town for work, heading about 25 miles to New York City, but they return to a quiet, stable community in Passaic County.
North Haledon is a city that packs a lot of history and charm.

Nature preserves and public sports fields near North Haledon
At the center of North Haledon is a recreational park with baseball diamonds, soccer fields, tennis courts, a playground and short walking trails. The park is also the site of events, like the annual food truck festival, when the community supports local food trucks while enjoying musical performances. The North Haledon Free Public Library is next to the park. Here, residents meet up for game and movie nights, book clubs and educational programs. “North Haledon backs up to High Mountain Park, which is a nature preserve that separates it from Wayne,” Simone says. Located just west of North Haledon, the 1200-acre preserve has wooded hiking and biking trails that offer views of waterfalls, meadows and ponds. Just to the north, there’s the G. Thomas Donch Nature Preserve, which is a popular spot to go fishing and kayaking. North Haledon experiences all four seasons, including warm summers where temperatures get as hot as 85°F and colder winters where temperatures can drop to 23°F.

Local restaurants along High Mountain Road, but shopping centers are a few miles away
High Mountain Road is the small town’s Main Street, where residents find restaurants and community resources like the fire station. Among the chain restaurants are locally owned spots, which range from casual pizzerias and Italian restaurants to laidback Japanese and Mediterranean places. There is a supermarket in town and additional grocery store options are in the neighboring towns of Haledon and Wyckoff. “You have to drive 20 to 30 minutes for a mall or bigger shopping trip,” Simone says. He adds that the closest one is in Wayne; the Willowbrook Mall is about 9 miles from North Haledon and has a mix of boutiques and department stores. Residents are an 8-mile drive away from Paramus, which has two hospitals. The Bergen New Bridge Medical Center and Valley Hospital offer various medical services, including emergency care.
