Its quite a transition of density. You can be in Bergen County, less than 2 miles West from the Hudson, and it feels like a far flung burb. Yet a mile can mean the difference between two story structures and generous yard sizes, to extreme density.
Example being the areas around Paterson. Driving through them, you wouldn't think you're right by NYC. Or even Fort Lee/ Teaneck.
