Teaneck (pronounced /ˈtiːˌnɛk/) is a township in Bergen County, New Jersey, and is a suburb of New York City. As of the United States 2000 Census, the township population was 39,260. The Census Bureau's 2006 population estimate for the township is 39,610.[1]
Teaneck is the second-most populous municipality in Bergen County, and lies at the crossroads of Interstate 95 and the eastern terminus of Interstate 80. In 1965, Teaneck became the first community in the nation with a white majority to voluntarily desegregate its public schools.
Teaneck was created on February 19, 1895 by an Act of the New Jersey Legislature. Teaneck was formed from portions of Englewood Township and Ridgefield Township, both of which are now defunct (despite existing municipalities with similar names), along with portions of Bogota and Leonia.[3] Independence followed the results of a referendum held on January 14, 1895, in which voters favored incorporation by a 46-7 margin.[4] To assuage the concerns of Englewood Township's leaders, the new municipality was formed as a township, rather than succumbing to the borough craze sweeping across Bergen County at the time.[4] On May 3, 1921 and on June 1, 1926, portions of what had been Teaneck were transferred to Overpeck Township.[5]
