====Japanese American==== {{see also|Japanese in New York City}} The Japanese community, which includes a significant number of Japanese nationals, has long had a presence in Fort Lee, with over a quarter of the county's total Japanese population living in that borough alone. Adjacent [[Edgewater, New Jersey|Edgewater]] has also developed an active [[Japanese American]] community, particularly after the construction of the largest Japanese-oriented commercial center on the [[East Coast of the United States|U.S. East Coast]] in this borough. As of March 2011, about 2,500 Japanese Americans lived in Fort Lee and Edgewater combined; this is the largest concentration of Japanese Americans in New Jersey.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.nj.com/news/index.ssf/2011/03/japanese-americans_in_fort_lee.html|title=Japanese-Americans in Fort Lee, Edgewater describe frantic calls to loved ones in quake's wake|author=Stirling, Stephen|date=March 12, 2011|access-date=April 1, 2014}}</ref> The remainder of Bergen County's Japanese residents are concentrated in northern communities, including Ridgewood.
