Mahwah is a township in Bergen County, New Jersey, United States. As of the United States 2000 Census, the township population was 24,062. The name Mahwah is derived from the Lenni Lenape word "mawewi" which means "Meeting Place" or "Place Where Paths Meet".
Mahwah is near the Ramapo Mountains and the Ramapo River. Interstate 287 passes through Mahwah, but the only point of access is at the New Jersey-New York border where 287 meets Route 17. Historic U.S. Route 202 also runs through Mahwah from Oakland, New Jersey, to Suffern, New York. Mahwah is bordered by the towns of Upper Saddle River, Ramsey, Allendale, Wyckoff, Franklin Lakes, and Oakland in Bergen County, New Jersey; Ringwood in Passaic County, New Jersey; and Ramapo in Rockland County, New York. Several state and county parks are located in Mahwah, due to its large size and scenic terrain. They include Campgaw Mountain Reservation, Darlington County Park, Ramapo Mountain Reservation, and Ramapo Mountain State Forest. The Ramapo River runs through the western section of Mahwah.
The Ramapough Mountain Indians were the original inhabitants of Mahwah and surrounding area, and now number approximately 5,000 people living around the Ramapo Mountains of northern New Jersey and southern New York. The tribe is officially recognized by the states of New Jersey and New York, but does not have federal recognition.[27] Their tribal office is located on Stag Hill Road in Mahwah, and the Chief of the Ramapough Lenape Indian Nation is Dwaine Perry (as of March 2007). For 25 years Mahwah hosted the A&P Tennis Classic, a tune up for the U.S. Open tennis tournament held at the USTA National Tennis Center in Flushing, Queens. In August 1997, due to personal debt, then-Mayor David J. Dwork shot and killed himself in the town's mayoral offices. There were also unverified allegations of corruption. Dwork was memorialized with a tree dedicated to him at the site of the Mahwah Public Library. The definitive history book of Mahwah is "From Pioneer Settlement to Suburb, A History of Mahwah, New Jersey, 1700-1976" by Henry Bischoff and Mitchell Kahn L.C 78-55451ISBN0-498-02218-8. Originally published by A.S. Barnes and Company, a re-print was issued in 2005 by the Mahwah Historical Society. The book is 469 pages long. Ford Motor Company operated an assembly plant in Mahwah from 1955 to 1982. At the time of it's completion, it was the largest motor vehicle assembly plant in the United States. The Ford plant, along with other businesses such as American Brake Shoe and Foundry Company, helped contribute to the economic development of the town and its reputation for low home property taxes. The Mahwah town sports teams remain named Thunderbirds in honor of the Ford plant. Mahwah is also mentioned briefly in the Bruce Springsteen song "Johnny 99."
