Teaneck, Residential township in Bergen County, United States.
Teaneck extends across 6.2 square miles of land in New Jersey, containing tree-lined streets, residential neighborhoods, and numerous municipal parks.
The township formed on February 19, 1895, from sections of Englewood Township and Ridgefield Township, following a referendum among local residents.
In 1965, Teaneck schools marked a national milestone by becoming the first district in the United States to voluntarily integrate without court orders.
The township location, 14 miles from New York City, provides residents access to employment opportunities while maintaining suburban residential characteristics.
The Hackensack River forms the western boundary of Teaneck, where George Washington's army crossed at New Bridge Landing during the Revolutionary War.
