[quote=Anonymous]I grew up in Chappaqua. My dad commuted to his job in NYC. Generally the commute is fine -- shorter than 90 minutes on a normal day, for sure. Chappaqua is a very, very affluent area. The closest DMV equivalent would be Potomac, though the wealth is somewhat older, especially in the adjacent towns (such as Pound Ridge). These towns--along with places like Greenwich, CT--is where a lot of the Wall Street guys live. Virtually everyone sends their kids to public school. Since it's in the NE, the school districts are town-based, which has its positives and negatives. Generally I think Westchester (northern Westchester, that is) is considered nicer than NJ because it's less densely developed. I think a budget of $1.5M should be able to get you a decent house in Chappaqua, Ketonah, Bedford, etc. [/quote]
