Monsey is a quiet suburb with rolling hills and synagogues
The beauty of Monsey is not found just in its rolling hills and marshes. The fabric of the area is more than old farms, views of a distant Manhattan skyline and a rich Hudson Valley history. The area was little more than a one-stoplight town until the early 1950s, when housing prices started to skyrocket in New York City and families began leaving the city’s urban boroughs in search of affordable and quiet rural neighborhoods. Today, Monsey is home to scores of synagogues and kosher food stores.
The well-maintained landscaping of Monsey present the town as a picture-perfect location.

Condos and single-family houses with a wide range of styles and prices
“Monsey used to feel like a small hamlet, but today it’s a much bigger town. There are a lot more people,” says Naomi Streicher, a Realtor with Q Home Sales, who grew up in the neighborhood. There’s a growing demand to live in town, especially for people who don’t drive. “If you live near the center of Monsey, you don’t need a car,” she says. The ever-increasing number of town houses, condos and other multi-family units seems to confirm that. Home prices vary widely in Monsey. A one-bedroom, one-bath condominium near the heart of Monsey sells for about $224,000. A large colonial, complete with gold-plated plumbing fixtures on two-thirds of an acre, sells for $3 million. Housing styles are as varied as their pricing. The entire Hudson Valley has a diverse assortment of architectural designs, from clapboard farmhouses to ranch-styles. There’s even a Frank Lloyd Wright Usonian house outside Monsey. Most homes in town and in newer subdivisions have off-street parking and sidewalks.
The new condos provide a delightful small patio that offers picturesque views of manicured hills
Each street can be distinguished from others by its unique architectural style.

Commuting the 32 miles to NYC by car, train or bus
The hamlet is about 30 miles northwest of Lower Manhattan. There are several transportation options to New York City that have enabled Monsey to continue to grow. Interstate and state highways like Palisades Parkway connect the two destinations; the drive takes between 50 minutes and an hour and 40 minutes, depending on traffic. The nearest train station, which is in Spring Valley about 2 miles away, brings passengers to Penn Station in about 2 hours. Buses also run regularly.

Sports at Manny Welder Park, farms with fresh produce and petting zoos
Monsey’s parks and recreation department works hard to provide residents with activities and events. The neighborhood has more than 300 acres of town parks and recreation facilities. Manny Welder Park has lighted tennis and handball courts, four sports fields and a playground. The 30-acre Reisman Sports Complex’s amenities include ball fields and volleyball, tennis and basketball courts. When one is not playing sports, it’s easy to experience farm life in the heart of Monsey. West Maple Farm sits on 15 acres of farmland that allows visitors hands-on experience such as picking fresh blueberries and vegetables, feeding chickens and visiting with cows, sheep, and other farm animals. Demarest Farm is a local family-owned farm that allows visitors to pick their own peaches and apples. The farm gives tractor rides and has a petting zoo and play area.
A variety of activities for all children are available at Manny Welder Park's large playground.

S&W Ladies Wear offers the latest fashions at up to 90 percent off retail price. Weingarten Shoes sells quality footwear and has been in business for 40 years.
