Newfoundland and Passaic County
Newfoundland is associated with Passaic County in the Census boundary data. Start with the parcel’s tax bill to match the property to that jurisdiction, then confirm which government handles its land use.
Newfoundland by land and water
The Census records 0.49 square miles of water within Newfoundland, or 7% of its total area. It is 0.7 percentage points higher than the 6.2% recorded for Passaic County. This is geographic context; waterfront status and usable land must be checked at the parcel.
For scale, Newfoundland CDP has 1.1 times the land area of nearby Macopin CDP (6.14 square miles). These areas describe boundaries, not comparable property prices.
