in Glen Rock.

Glen Rock takes its name from a 570-ton glacial erratic deposited at the Borough's geographic center by retreating Wisconsinan-era ice sheets. Two NJ Transit train stations sit within Borough limits — Main Line service at Glen Rock-Main Line and Bergen County Line service at Glen Rock-Boro Hall — making the Borough one of few Bergen municipalities with same-zip rail redundancy. Glen Rock Public Schools educate K-12 within Borough boundaries. The 2024 general tax rate was 3.288 per $100 assessed. Borough Code Article XXVI addresses affordable-housing obligations exclusively (no rent-leveling chapter exists), so apartment leases follow statewide rules: 46:8-21.2 deposit ceiling, Anti-Eviction protections at 2A:18-61.1, source-of-income protection at P.L. 2025 c.251, and FCHA two-phase screening sequencing under 46:8-52 et seq. Lead-paint methodology is visual per DCA's 2025-26 list, 3-year cycle from P.L. 2024 c.74. Round 4 affordable-housing obligations were committed via Borough resolution under P.L. 2024 c.2. Rail to Hoboken plus PATH transfer to Manhattan averages 48 minutes. Landlord-tenant filings route to Bergen Special Civil Part [per Bergen County Board of Taxation + Glen Rock dual-station historical record].

All 70 Bergen municipalities supported. NJ compliance baked in: Section 8 acceptance, FCHA two-phase screening, $50 application fee cap, lead-safe certification tracking.

• Security deposits are capped at 1.5× monthly rent under N.J.S.A. 46:8-21.2. Your landlord must hold the deposit in an NJ FDIC-insured account and pay annual interest (§46:8-19). Return within 30 days of move-out (§46:8-21.1) or face double damages.
• Fair Chance in Housing — landlords cannot ask about criminal history on the initial application. Background checks happen only after a conditional offer (N.J.S.A. 46:8-52 et seq.).
• Section 8 — your housing-choice voucher is a protected source of income. A landlord cannot decline an applicant because they intend to pay with Section 8 (NJLAD).
• Eviction — good cause required for all evictions under the NJ Anti-Eviction Act (N.J.S.A. 2A:18-61.1). Lease expiration alone is not grounds.
