East Rutherford on vald (borough) Bergeni maakonnas New Jersey osariigis Ameerika Ühendriikides. See on New Yorgi eeslinn, Midtown Manhattanist 11 km läänes. 2020. aasta rahvaloenduse ajal elas East Rutherfordis 10 022 inimest.

Aprillis 1889 võttis New Jersey parlament vastu otsuse, millega eraldati osa Union vallast Boiling Springsi valla nime all.[2] Märtsis 1894 korraldati rahvahääletus, millega kaotati Boiling Springsi vald ja loodi East Rutherford. Uus borough oli samade piiridega nagu Boiling Springs, peale nime muudeti ka valitsusstruktuuri. Sellega algas Bergeni maakonnas nn boroughitis, mille käigus moodustati suur hulk boroʾsid. Ainuüksi 1894. aastal moodustati maakonnas 26 uut taolist omavalitsusüksust.[3]

East Rutherfordis asub Meadowlandsi spordikompleks, mis hõlmab Meadowlands Arenat ja MetLife Stadiumit, varem oli seal ka Giants Stadium. Meadowlands Arena on olnud NHLi New Jersey Devilsi hokiklubi ja NBA New Jersey Netsi korvpalliklubi kodustaadion, praegu toimuvad seal korvpallikohtumised ja kontserdid. MetLife Stadium on NFL-i Ameerika jalgpalli klubide New York Giantsi ja New York Jetsi kodustaadion. Aastal 2014 toimus seal Super Bowl XLVIII, millega sai East Rutherfordist väikseim Super Bowli võõrustanud asula. East Rutherford on üks 16-st välja valitud 2026. aasta jalgpalli maailmameistrivõistluste võõrustajalinnast, MetLife Stadiumil toimub seitse mängu ja finaal.[4][5] Giants Stadium, kus Giants ja Jets 2009. aastani mängisid, oli kunagi ka MLS-i New York Red Bullsi kodu.

East Rutherfordis on kaubanduskeskus American Dream Meadowlands (varem Xanadu), mis avas uksed aastal 2019.[6]

"For a period of sixteen years following the passage of this act few boroughs were organized in the State, only three of them being in Bergen County.... As it was twenty-six boroughs were created in the county from January 23, 1894, to December 18, of the same year." Note that the source incorrectly lists June 23, 1894, as the borough's formation date, even though the borough is listed correctly in chronological order.
