THE BERGEN COUNTY COMMUNITY GUIDE

Living in
Ho-Ho-Kus, NJ.

Village scale. A sense of history.

Ho-Ho-Kus brings together a compact center, a local train station, and a historic landmark in a small Bergen County borough. A useful first visit combines a walk near the shops with a drive through the surrounding residential streets. The experience is different from a larger downtown, with nearby Ridgewood expanding your dining and shopping options.

01 / EXPLORE HO-HO-KUS

Schools & education

Ho-Ho-Kus Public School is the borough’s local public school, with students continuing to Northern Highlands Regional High School. Explore both schools’ curriculum and extracurricular information as part of your move, and contact the district about enrollment and transition requirements.

02 / EXPLORE HO-HO-KUS

Restaurants & everyday stops

Ho-Ho-Kus Inn & Tavern is a local anchor for American dining in a historic setting, with tavern and dining-room options. For another evening out, Latour in nearby Ridgewood offers French-American dining. Check each restaurant’s current menu and reservation availability before visiting.

Recreation & things to do

The Hermitage brings local history to life through its museum and programming. The borough website is a useful source for community events and municipal updates. A museum visit and a stroll through the center give you two different ways to get to know the town.

Getting around

Ho-Ho-Kus station gives residents a local rail option. Use NJ TRANSIT to compare departure times, transfers, and the full trip to your destination. Before choosing a home around a commute, check the walk or drive to the station and the borough’s parking arrangements.

Finding your home

Consider whether your priority is a location near the center or more separation from its activity. Assess each property’s lot, floor plan, condition, and maintenance needs individually. A guided tour can help connect what you see in a listing to how you would use the home day to day.
