New Milford is a borough in Bergen County, in the U.S. state of New Jersey. As of the 2020 United States census, the borough's population was 16,923,[10][11] an increase of 582 (+3.6%) from the 2010 census count of 16,341,[20][21] which in turn reflected a decline of 59 (−0.4%) from the 16,400 counted in the 2000 census.[22]

New Milford was authorized to be incorporated as a borough on March 11, 1922, from what remained of Palisades Township, subject to approval in a referendum (which took place on April 18, 1922). With the creation of New Milford, Palisades Township (which had been created in 1871) was dissolved.[23][24][25] The borough is believed to have been named for Milford, Pennsylvania.[26]
