This is a list of mayors of Jersey City, New Jersey.
The City of Jersey was originally chartered by an act of incorporation in 1820. The city was governed by a five member Board of Selectmen.
The City of Jersey City was incorporated in 1838 under a Mayor-Common Council form of government with a directly elected mayor and a Board of Aldermen. All terms were for one year. In 1870, with the merger of Jersey City, Hudson City, and the City of Bergen, terms for mayor became two years. In 1885, the New Jersey State Legislature changed the term of mayor to five years.
