I was thinking something similar about town 24, Nanuet, in Rockland (right next to the town we're in).

It's not a bad place but, part of the area goes to a not so great school district Chat Icon Chat Icon

From the article:

"For this year's list we focused on smaller places that offered the best combination of economic opportunity, good schools, safe streets, things to do and a real sense of community."

No one is saying it is THAT horrible but there are definetly a ton of other towns that are better. Everyone can agree with that.

I heard the high school has a metal detector. In my opinion, any neighborhood that requires a metal detector in their high school is in trouble.

Re: Best Places to live 2007

Now I know why I feel so inadaquet... I'm in the 15th skinniest county in the country... and not far from #10, #21, and #22.

And 2 of the towns with the highest medium income are in my county.

I'm surrounded by skinny, rich people! Chat Icon

I teach at Baldwin High School- they do NOT have a metal detector. Its really a nice school. I teach regular and AP classes and we have a lot of students getting into top notch colleges.
