Options range from brick multifamily homes to midcentury co-ops
Multifamily properties are the most common housing option in Williamsbridge. You’ll see two- and three-family homes, often with private driveways, garages and backyards. Semi-detached brick single-family homes are also common, while fully detached properties are harder to find. Midcentury co-ops offer another option for buyers, and apartment buildings provide renters with a range of choices.
Multifamily homes typically sell from the upper $600,000s to the low $1 million range. Single-family houses tend to go from the upper $500,000s to the upper $800,000s, while co-ops range from the mid-$100,000s to the upper $200,000s. Williamsbridge’s median sale price lands in the lower $600,000s, similar to Wakefield ’s, though detached homes are less common here. “Williamsbridge is a bit more urban than Wakefield, which has gotten very popular. It’s the main artery for transportation and restaurants, and it’s closer to the train,” says William Beltran, a Bronx native and Realtor with Douglas Elliman.
Semi-detached brick homes line residential streets across the neighborhood.

If I had to do it all over again I wouldn't have chosen to live here. I don't find the area to be the cleanest or quiet and I don't see it changing for the better any time soon to be honest.
