Accessed September 4, 2014.〕 |website = |footnotes = }} Ho-Ho-Kus is a borough in Bergen County, New Jersey, United States. As of the 2010 census, the borough's population was 4,078,〔〔〔 reflecting an increase of 18 (+0.4%) from the 4,060 counted in the 2000 Census, which had in turn increased by 125 (+3.2%) from the 3,935 counted in the 1990 Census.〔(Table 7. Population for the Counties and Municipalities in New Jersey: 1990, 2000 and 2010 ), New Jersey Department of Labor and Workforce Development, February 2011. Accessed August 27, 2012.〕 The borough is the home of several historical landmarks, including the Ho-Ho-Kus Inn and The Hermitage. Ho-Ho-Kus was incorporated as a borough by an act of the New Jersey Legislature on October 12, 1908, from what had originally been the borough of Orvil, which was in turn created on March 8, 1905, from portions of Orvil Township.〔Snyder, John P. (''The Story of New Jersey's Civil Boundaries: 1606-1968'' ), Bureau of Geology and Topography; Trenton, New Jersey; 1969. p. 80. Accessed June 6, 2012.〕〔''Municipal Incorporations of the State of New Jersey'' p. 7, lists a date of October 15, 1908 for the incorporation of Ho-Ho-Kus.〕 As of the 2000 United States Census, Ho-Ho-Kus was the 15th-wealthiest community in New Jersey with a per capita money income of $63,594 as of 1999, an increase of 36.9% from the $46,451 recorded in 1989.〔(Money Income (1989 and 1999) and Poverty (1999) New Jersey, Counties and Municipalities ), New Jersey State Data Center, April 2003. Accessed August 27, 2012.〕 The borough's median household income was $165,827 in 2013.〔(Income in the past 12 months (in 2013 inflation-adjusted dollars) - Ho-Ho-Kus borough, New Jersey ), United States Census Bureau. Accessed April 20, 2015.〕 In 2011, ''New Jersey Monthly'' magazine named Ho-Ho-Kus the best place to live in the state of New Jersey, citing its affluence, low crime rate and the quality of its school system, as well as its proximity to New York City and other major commercial destinations.〔("The #1 Town: Ho-Ho-Kus" ), ''New Jersey Monthly'', August 15, 2011. Accessed September 7, 2011.〕 == History of the name == The meaning of the name Ho-Ho-Kus is in dispute. From the official history on the borough's website, the most likely origin is a contraction of the Delaware Indian term "Mah-Ho-Ho-Kus" (or "Mehokhokus"), meaning "the red cedar."〔〔Hutchinson, Viola L. (''The Origin of New Jersey Place Names'' ), New Jersey Public Library Commission, May 1945. Accessed September 1, 2015.〕 Other meanings have been suggested over the years and are listed on the borough's website, including an Indian word for running water, a cleft in the rock or under the rock or hollow rock, the word "hohokes", signifying the whistle of the wind against the bark of trees, the Chihohokies Indians whose chief lived here, the Dutch ''Hoog Akers'' for "high acorns" or ''Hoge Aukers'', Dutch for "high oaks", the Indian word ''hoccus'' meaning "fox", or ''woakus'', "gray fox", or that the "Ho" part means joy or spirit, and the rest of the name from "hohokes," meaning a kind of bark of a tree.〔("In-Depth History of Ho-Ho-Kus." )〕〔Gannett, Henry.
