On behalf of the City of Bayonne, I would like to welcome you to your new hometown.  Although Bayonne is located in the heart of the New Jersey - New York metropolitan area, we remain a place with distinct identity where people know their neighbors.  Our one and two family homes and small apartment houses are signs of our close-knit neighborhoods.  We are proud to have residents with roots all over the world.

Bayonne offers you convenient shopping, plenty of transportation connections, a great school system, and people who care.

I hope you will become active in some of the hundreds  of clubs, organizations, teams, and religious congregations that thrive in Bayonne.

Working with the business community and other levels of government, the municipality seeks to maintain and improve a diversified economic base.  Blessed with the highly skilled and educated workforce, Bayonne is a hard-working community.  Formerly known as a city of oil refineries, Bayonne is now a city of trade, services, technology and manufacturing.

The future of Bayonne will be great, and we are all so glad that you have chosen to be part of it.  Welcome to your new hometown! 

Mayor Terrence Malloy
