Apartments for Rent in Hackensack, NJ

Along the Hackensack River about 10 miles northwest of Manhattan, Hackensack is considered a suburb of NYC, with many Hackensack apartments providing amazing views of the famous city skyline. With its fantastic downtown shopping district (complete with brick-paved sidewalks and historic architecture), cozy neighborhoods, and gorgeous parks, you may forget that you're a short bus or train ride away from the Big Apple.

Hackensack is home to some amazing destinations. Be sure to visit the First Dutch Reformed Church, built in 1696. The city itself was first settled by Dutch colonists in 1665 as part of New Netherland. When the English annexed the area in 1667, they named the area "New Barbadoes." In 1710, the village of Hackensack formed in New Barbadoes. Today, that once-sparsely populated village is now a thriving city of about 43,000 residents.

Two major schools call Hackensack home: Fairleigh Dickinson University and Bergen Community College. Other landmarks include the New Jersey Naval Museum, the Bergen Museum of Art & Science, and the vast shopping mall Shops at Riverside. MetLife Stadium -- home to the NFL's New York Jets and New York Giants -- and Meadowlands Racing and Entertainment are both about five miles south of Hackensack.
