Living in Bayonne, NJ

Bayonne has a rich history dating back hundreds of years. The land on which the city sits today was originally inhabited by the Lenni Lenape tribe of Native Americans before the first European settlers arrived in 1609. The city was named by early French Huguenot settlers to pay tribute to Bayonne, France.

Residents can enjoy a high quality of life in this seaside city. The local economy is supported by the service sector and container port operations, but Bayonne is primarily regarded primarily as a residential community. The Bayonne Bridge is known as one of the longest steel-arch bridges in the world, providing residents not only with easy transportation routes but also with a work of architectural art built right into the city itself.
