Englewood Cliffs is a borough in Bergen County, in the U.S. state of New Jersey. As of the 2020 United States census, the borough's population was 5,342,[9][10] an increase of 61 (+1.2%) from the 2010 census count of 5,281,[19][20] which in turn reflected a decline of 41 (-0.8%) from the 5,322 counted in the 2000 census.[21]

The borough houses the world headquarters of CNBC (NBCUniversal), the North American headquarters of South Korean conglomerate LG Corp,[22] and the American headquarters of global CPG conglomerate Unilever, and was home to both Ferrari and Maserati North America.[23]

The borough was formed in 1895, having seceded from Englewood Township, with William Outis Allison serving as the new municipality's first mayor,[24][25][26] as part of the "Boroughitis" then sweeping Bergen County, with 26 boroughs formed in the county in 1894 alone.[27]
