Elmsford is a small village with neighborly charm
Elmsford is a village in the town of Greenburgh, New York. It’s a small neighborhood, centered around West Main Street and tucked into an area of 1.1 square miles. “The residential streets in Elmsford are tree-lined. Homes are well kept with green lawns and trimmed shrubbery,” says Lauren Zaccaria a Realtor with Houlihan Lawrence Inc. "There aren’t many sidewalks, but the streets are quiet, and bike riders and dog-walkers share the roads." Neighbors in this community tend to look out for one another. During the aftermath of Superstorm Sandy, when residents had no power, village workers delivered firewood to homes, and police officers regularly checked in on the elderly.
