Passaic: Textile Mills and a Dense Immigrant City
Passaic covers just over three square miles in Passaic County and has a population of roughly 71,000, giving it one of the highest population densities in New Jersey. The city grew on the back of woolen textile mills powered by the Passaic River in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. The 1926 Passaic Textile Strike, which saw more than 15,000 workers walk off the job, became a landmark in American labor history and drew support from figures including Albert Einstein and Upton Sinclair.
Main Avenue runs through the commercial center and serves a population made up in large part of Dominican, Mexican, Orthodox Jewish, and West African communities. The city hosts the headquarters of Passaic Beth Israel Hospital, now operating as St. Mary's General Hospital, and the Willowbrook Mall sits just outside the municipal boundary in neighboring Wayne.
