Neighborhood Reviews
Brick multi-family homes and co-op buildings
Co-ops and multi-family homes make up much of the housing in Williamsbridge. A two-bedroom co-op in a midcentury building goes for between $140,000 to $177,000. Multi-family buildings can take on various configurations, including two-family duplexes, which can run around $500,000, and three-story three-family houses, which might cost as much as $1.25 million. A single-family colonial is a rare find. The northern section of the neighborhood is more purely residential with longer walks to shopping and dining options, though many homes are designed with parking spots in front. There are also subsidized housing and NYCHA complexes in the area, including the Gun Hill Houses, south of Gun Hill Road, the Parkside Senior Center, and Sydney House on Tilden Street, which is a project of Habitat For Humanity.

The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
