Bergen County: New Jersey's real-life cliffhanger

On its eastern edge, Bergen County ends at the sharp cliffs of the Palisades that dramatically drop to the mighty Hudson River below. As you move west and inland, you find high concentrations of suburban homes sprinkled among public parks and gently rolling hills. At the county's northern border, where it butts up against the New Jersey/New York state line, the Ramapo Mountains break up the suburban landscape and offer beautiful panoramic views. For a city fix, it doesn't get more urban than New York City across the river.
