The City of Clifton is located in Passaic County in northeastern New Jersey. Residents of this richly diverse community are fortunate to have a mix of family-owned and big-name stores, restaurants, and trade shops, as well as a multitude of cultural, recreational and educational opportunities – and of course, a fabulous library system. We also have the benefit of proximity to the shore, the mountains, rural areas, big-city offerings, major sports and entertainment venues, and a large number of historical sites.
