Hoboken is a square mile and a quarter of Hudson County facing Manhattan across the river, with about 59,000 people living on it — roughly 47,000 to the square mile, third densest of New Jersey's fifty largest municipalities.
It was Bergen County until 1840, and Bergen held more enslaved people than any other county in New Jersey: 2,825 in the 1800 census, 18.6% of its population. New Jersey was the last northern state to free its slaves. It freed nobody living in 1804, binding children born afterwards until 21 or 25; renamed the remaining enslaved as "apprentices" in 1846; still held eighteen people in 1860; and voted the Thirteenth Amendment down in Trenton in March 1865, ratifying it only in January 1866 after it was already law.
Hudson County did not exist until 22 February 1840. Everything in it — Jersey City, Bayonne, Hoboken, Union City, North Bergen, West New York — was part of Bergen County before that, and Bergen held more enslaved people than any other county in the state: 2,825 of them in the 1800 census, 18.6% of everyone living there. The county line moved. The history did not.
Abortion reporting to the CDC is voluntary, and New Jersey is one of four jurisdictions that declines. Its own Department of Health publishes no count of induced terminations, by county or statewide. The state that wrote abortion access into its statutes does not record how often it happens.
There is no figure for Hoboken, or for Hudson County, because there is no figure for anywhere in New Jersey. The best available independent estimate is 61,200 abortions provided by clinicians statewide in 2025.

Congregations we know of in Hoboken that have taken a public abolitionist position — not simply a pro-life one.
We are not aware of a publicly abolitionist church in Hoboken. We read every New Jersey congregation in the directory we work from — 106 of them — and found one in the whole state, in Glassboro. Abolitionists Rising, the movement's own national organisation, lists the same single church on its New Jersey page and no others. That is not a gap in the research. It is the situation.
If your church has taken a public position on abolition — from the pulpit, in a resolution, or in its own published words — tell us and we will verify it and list it here.
