A Guide to the 5 Boroughs of New York City

Approximately 1.4 million New Yorkers live in the Bronx's 42 square miles, bordering Westchester County at the northernmost end of New York City.

A quarter of the Bronx is covered by parkland, making it the Big Apple's greenest borough. From Pelham Bay Park to Van Cortlandt Park — home to America's first public municipal golf course, opened in 1895 — the Bronx has no shortage of natural escapes within the city. The Bronx is also home to the New York Botanic Garden, which houses historic plants such as a Japanese winterberry and columnar tulip tree planted back in 1895, as well as a 155-foot-tall tree located in the Azalea Garden. One of the Bronx's most popular attractions is its namesake zoo, which has been at the forefront of wildlife conservation in the area since first opening in 1899. Today, the Bronx Zoo is home to over 11,000 animals and upwards of 650 individual species.
