Town
History: |
Englewood's population
is far more diverse than that of most suburbs including many
of its Bergen County neighbors. Occupations range from highly
paid professions to unskilled trades. At present, Englewood
is a sophisticated city which combines most of its historic
grace & charm with an exciting cosmopolitan atmosphere.
It has many contrasts: elaborate Victorian mansions and modern
low-rise condos; quiet tree-lined residential neighbors &
the bustling central business district; Large Estates &
Affordable Apartments. |
