Teterboro Airport (TEB/KTEB) is located in Bergen County, New Jersey, which is adjacent to the Hudson River and across from New York City (Harlem) and exclusively hosts general aviation traffic, hence it is a paradise for business and private jets lovers. It is the most busiest business jets airport in the New York Metropolitan area. In 2019 it had close to 500 movements on average per day, mainly caused by Netjets, which has a base at TEB.
