"People are choosing Westchester - not just to visit, but to live, build families, and invest in their future. When we create housing opportunities and vibrant neighborhoods, people come - and they stay."
Jersey City is diverse and has a cultural depth that the locals are only too happy to share. The city opposite New York City on the Hudson River has breathtaking views of the Big Apple's skyline and the Statue of Liberty is clearly visible. Despite New York having legal jurisdiction over the statue, her location is within the boundaries of Jersey City.
The underlying logic is simple: the further away a visitor comes from, the longer they tend to stay - and longer stays mean more money flowing into the local economy through lodging taxes, restaurant bills, and retail spending.
If you could have a trail that went through Warren County and connected with a trail that goes up to Tahawus, then you could connect that to the Albany trail, and you could go all the way from New York City on a multi purpose trail into the heart of the Adirondacks, which would be pretty cool.
It's an enclave of Jersey City, the thriving Hudson River city with delicious cuisine, and is one of the least-dense neighborhoods of the city, as Statistical Atlas shows.

When Kiri Sulke began dating her now husband, Phillip, in New York in 2014, she was immediately drawn to the real estate developer and artist. "I trusted him straight away," recalls the Australian-born lawyer turned writer and yoga instructor. "He is incredibly honest and unafraid to show his emotions and be vulnerable." She also quickly sensed that Phillip does nothing halfheartedly-a scrupulousness he confirmed not long after, when he mentioned searching for a weekend escape from his Tribeca apartment.

The non-profit organization considered communities with populations of 5,000 to 24,999 residents and evaluated them on over 60 factors across categories such as housing, neighborhood, transportation, environment, and health.

There was a time I thought I'd spend the rest of my life in New York. After more than a decade in Manhattan, the streets felt like my own, and my identity felt entwined with the city. Even after having two babies on the Upper West Side, I was constantly plotting and planning on how we could make this lifestyle work long-term. And then, my husband and I stumbled upon our dream home in a distant Connecticut suburb.
Construction will start this spring as part of the next stage of Ronkonkoma's $1.2 billion Station Yards project, an executive for the developer said, after Brookhaven Town officials approved hundreds of additional apartments and medical office space.

Newburyport, a quaint coastal town shaped by centuries of maritime life, is a hidden gem in Massachusetts. Set at the mouth of the Merrimack River, and not far from the New Hampshire border, it carries an easy, unforced charm. Here, fishermen still bring in the day's catch and the ocean influences everyday life. Shops are made for and by the locals, the bakeries feel comforting, and vast, unspoiled beaches line the coastline.

It is no secret to many of the 1.4 million people who call the Bronx home that they have felt as if the rest of the city had seen the Bronx much as Mayor Mamdani said, a "forgotten borough," over the last six decades. Being forgotten often leads to ignorance of needs critical to a community. "Undersourced" is a term often used by Bronx residents, community advocates, elected officials, and others to describe critical issues such as police protection, air pollution, education, healthcare, and business opportunities.
