It borders the districts of Seckbach in the west and Fechenheim in the south, the town of Maintal in the east and the town of Bad Vilbel in the north. Bergen and Enkheim were first mentioned as a common village in the thirteenth century. The two locations were administered together for centuries in 1936, but Bergen-Enkheim only officially became a town in 1968. In 1977 it was incorporated into the city of Frankfurt. Geographically the territory is marked by the transition of the Main valley into the rising Wetterau. It is directly linked to the Rhine-Main area's RMV U-Bahn and bus network.
