Nunda has rolling hills and room to spread out an hour from Rochester
People live in Nunda for many reasons: Some are looking to get out of the city, and some have lived here for generations. Others are just seeking room to spread out or practice homesteading. Either way, Nunda's bucolic rolling hills and winding country roads an hour from Rochester attract buyers seeking solitude in upstate New York. "If someone's calling for a house in Nunda, it's because of land and space," says Matthew Sharman, Realtor at Empire Realty Group in Dansville. While land is a major draw, Sharman also highlights Nunda's cute downtown area, proximity to Letchworth State Park and get-to-know-you feel. "Your neighbors might be miles away, but it's still a tight-knit community," he says.
Nunda was founded in 1839.
The median age in Nunda is 36.

Historic homes in the village and surrounding farmland
The village of Nunda has many homes built in the 1800s and early 1900s, with common styles including Nationals, farmhouses, and more ornate Victorian and Greek Revival styles. Cabins and ranch-style homes built since the mid-20th century are common throughout, including on the rural outskirts of town. As properties get farther from the village area, lot sizes become larger, and many homes sit on acres of woods and farmland. Properties in rural parts of Nunda do usually require private wells and septic systems. "There are lots of different reasons [people move here], but one reason is you get more for your money from a space perspective, and from a square footage perspective as well," Sharman says. Homes most commonly sell between $100,000 and $375,000. Nunda has a CAP Index Crime Score of 2, which is lower than the national average of 4.

Waterfall views at Letchworth State Park
Letchworth State Park borders Nunda and covers over 14,400 acres. Here, the Genesee River drops off at the 600-foot-deep gorge, creating impressive waterfall views. "They call it the Grand Canyon of the East. They have beautiful sights there," Sharman says. The park has 66 miles of hiking trails and campgrounds that can be enjoyed year-round. "In the fall, you're having the explosion of color in the trees. In the winter, you'll have ice glazed over branches, and it looks like something out of a postcard," Sharman says. Back in the village, Nunda Kiwanis Park is just next to the Nunda Historical Society Museum and has baseball and soccer fields. The park is used for community events, such as Easter Egg hunts and the Nunda Fundays carnival, and the Nunda Kiwanis Club hosts youth sports at the athletic facilities here, too.
