[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Let me throw a few other towns out there.  There are several nice towns in Westchester along the Hudson River that can also be reached from Grand Central on the Hudson Line: Tarrytown, Sleepy Hollow, Dobbs Ferry, Hastings, Irvington, Croton - May be a bit less expensive and schools (I think) are okay. Anything further than Croton will have an ugly commute

Riverdale in the Bronx is also very nice and very close to Manhattan. Frankly if my family went back to NYC we’d look here - also close to several very good private schools [/quote]

My sister has lived in Briarcliff Manor along the Hudson line for 20 years and loves it. They moved out of Tarrytown because of the schools, but the schools for her town (Briarcliff, not Ossining) and all of those other towns PP listed are great. Much more down to earth than a lot of other areas listed here. If it was me, though, I would do Chatham/Madison/Millburn in NJ, though.

Another area that hasn’t been mentioned at all is over toward the shore in NJ - Rumson and Fairhaven. There are high-speed ferries in Highlands and Atlantic Highlands that go to midtown. Beautiful towns and worth checking out if you are beach/boat people. [/quote]
