Edgewater is a borough located along the Hudson River in Bergen County, New Jersey. As of the 2010 census, the borough had a population of 11,513. Its history has featured the founding of the first colony in Bergen County, contribution to the Revolutionary War, a period as a "sleepy, pastoral little town" with resort hotels in the 19th century; industrialization in the early 20th century and transition to a residential community in the late 20th century.

Edgewater was originally formed on December 7, 1894, from portions of Ridgefield Township as the Borough of Undercliff, at the height of the "Boroughitis" phenomenon then sweeping through Bergen County. The name was changed to Edgewater on November 8, 1899.

May 17 2010 - River Road, Edgewater Nj. I was on my way home biking when I spotted these Canadian Geese on the sidewalk. Parked my bike and took out my cellphone and out of curiosity took video of them. Not knowing what they'll do next, I kept on taking video wherever they go. Then the drama unfolds as they started to cross the busy street. Running the street they stopped traffic, faced the big bus and protect their gooseling until police patrol car came to rescue.
