Haledon (/hldən/ HAIL-don[19][20][self-published source]) is a borough in Passaic County, in the U.S. state of New Jersey. As of the 2020 United States census, the borough's population was 9,052,[9][10] an increase of 734 (+8.8%) from the 2010 census count of 8,318,[21][22] which in turn reflected an increase of 66 (+0.8%) from the 8,252 counted in the 2000 census.[23]

Haledon was incorporated as a borough by an act of the New Jersey Legislature on April 8, 1908, replacing the now-defunct Manchester Township, based on the results of a referendum held on May 21, 1908.[24]
