Like neighboring North Hudson communities, North Bergen is among those places in the country with the highest populace density and a majority Hispanic population.
In 1660 he granted permission to establish the semi-autonomous colony of Bergen, with the chief village positioned at today's Bergen Square, considered to be the first chartered municipality in what would turn into the state of New Jersey.
