Flooding
Wallington is bounded by the Passaic River on the west and the Saddle River on the north. FEMA's National Flood Hazard Layer shows Zone AE Special Flood Hazard Areas along both rivers, covering a minority of the borough's land. The borough's site has no dedicated flood information page that we found; its document search turns up only flash-flood notices. To check a specific address, search it on the FEMA Flood Map Service Center.
