Although there are only five boroughs, a number of areas near and far have been rhetorically identified as New York City’s “Sixth Borough“. Places to which the “sixth borough” appellation have been applied include New Jersey (especially Hudson County, New Jersey or Newark, New Jersey); Nassau County, New York; Philadelphia; South Florida and even Israel. The only proposal to merit any formal consideration was a 1934 bill submitted by a New York City alderman that suggested merging Yonkers into New York City as a sixth borough.
