North Bergen is the next community one mile east of Secaucus. It is only one mile from the entry to the Lincoln tunnels. There are a few budget priced hotels just off route 3 in Bergen. The area is not as convenient as the area around Harmon Meadow Mall. It is primarily a commercial neighborhood with less restaurants and shops within easy access, but the accommodations are typically more bargain priced.

This area of Northern New Jersey is a flat marshy area traversed by a complex of interstate highways, roads and intersections. There are a several industrial parks with numerous office buildings, warehouses and light manufacturing sites. The little village of Secaucus has been swallowed up in the midst of it all. Secaucus offers some small shops, filling stations, restaurants, convenience stores, a shopping mall, an assortment of factory discount outlets, a convention center and a nice assortment of hotels.

If you are driving to New York City, this is a great place to stay. The accommodations are typically newer, more spacious and less expensive than in Manhattan. Rooms cost approximately 25% less, and you will save as much as $35 per day in parking.

New Jersey Transit Bus # 320 goes from the Harmon Meadow Shopping Center near many of the hotels directly to the Port Authority Terminal in Midtown Manhattan. The ride costs about $4 and takes approximately 30 minutes. The Port Authority Bus Terminal is on 42nd Street just a four-block walk from Times Square and the Broadway Theater District. Busses run every 15 minutes on weekdays and every 30 minutes on Saturdays until 1AM. Service is limited on Sundays. I would recommend driving into Manhattan on Sundays.
