Condos for Sale in Bergen, NY

On the northeastern corner of Genesee County, Bergen is a small community of about 3,000. Miles of countryside surround a historic downtown, where local restaurants sit in quaint storefronts. Neighbors gather for annual festivals, and they like the rural seclusion the community provides. “Country people are a little different; we hunt and fish and do those kinds of activities,” says Mark Swanson, a broker with Patriot Real Estate Professionals, who lives in Bergen. “We come out here for peace, so we don’t have to deal with big crowds. You know Mayberry? That’s us.” But, with interstate access, it’s 20 miles or less to Rochester and Batavia, and Buffalo is about 60 miles away, ensuring locals can commute to nearby cities for work, entertainment or big-box shopping. In Bergen’s small downtown area, the train runs through. Near the railroad crossing, a small strip of Italianate-style storefronts house local businesses. In a pale blue shop, Greg’ry’s Bakery has made pastries, baked goods, wraps and sandwiches from scratch since 1986. A few doors down, Ralph & Rosie’s Deli is the go-to for pizza. “Those are our two main spots,” Swanson says. Nearby Bergen Farm Market Family Restaurant
