Bergen County towns / South Bergen
Lyndhurst
A long borough running from the Meadowlands up Ridge Road, with a station, a park system and steady two-family stock.
Getting to Manhattan
Pascack Valley Line. Budget roughly 40 minutes door to Midtown at peak — confirm against the current timetable, and test the trip yourself before you commit to a town on the strength of its commute.
The market here
Lyndhurst sits in South Bergen, with roughly 8,200 households and a median around $550k. That places it among the more attainable parts of the county. What a number like that hides is the spread — in a borough this size, the street matters more than the median.
