Getzville
Classic home styles amid verdant trees
Getzville’s winding roads and cul-de-sacs are situated among whispering pine and maple forests. Sidewalks line streets alongside medium-sized, well-maintained lots with homes having driveways and attached garages. House styles vary from street to street, with some subdivisions catering to Neo-traditional architecture with brick, stone and wooden masonry. While other avenues have classic colonials, Tudors and Victorian houses dotted among the landscape. Neighbors take pride in their homes, often having backyard pools and renovating older homes built in the 70’s and 80’s, with the median home price being $410,500.

The Great Baehre Swamp Wildlife Management Area is across the street, unfolding into whispering silver maple-ash woods and water-logged marshes inhabited by black bears, deer and turkey. Though hunting and fishing are prohibited, locals come for hikes, trapping and wildlife observation. Walton Woods Park is adjacent to the Audubon Branch - Amherst Public Library, with a rotating calendar of events.

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.
