Totowa, Borough in Passaic County, United States.
Totowa extends over 4 square miles of land between the municipalities of Paterson, Wayne, Little Falls, and Woodland Park in New Jersey.
The land that became Totowa was purchased by George Willocks in 1696 and later incorporated as a borough from portions of Wayne Township in 1898.
The name Totowa derives from Native American language referring to the Great Falls of the Passaic River, meaning sinking water or between mountains and water.
The Municipal Complex at 537 Totowa Road contains essential services including the police department, court, tax office, and health department services.
The borough has maintained the lowest tax rate in Passaic County for more than three decades while providing comprehensive municipal services to residents.
