Named for a 19th century Rochester politician
Daniel Webster was an established Rochester Whig from the early 19th century. In 1837, he gave a speech in the city about the state of the economy, which so moved the crowd of farmers from North Penfield that they named the town of Webster in his honor just three years later. In the early 1900s, locals would create an incorporated village with the same name at the heart of the city and introduce amenities like sanitation and a fire department. Today, Webster is known as the town "Where Life Is Worth Living," complete with a corridor of local diners along Ridge Avenue and lakeside parks and properties settled on Lake Ontario to the north. Commuters are also a half-hour drive at most from Downtown Rochester for work or nightlife.

Midcentury homes and Lake Ontario waterfront properties
Houses in Webster are mainly suburban single-family homes. Some were built back in the late 1940s, while new constructions have been popping up on the market for the last five years. Older ramblers, colonials and Cape Cods in need of some TLC are available for as low as $200,000, while newer Craftsman and custom homes on multi-acre lots can reach $1 million. Normally, three-to-four-bedroom homes in excellent condition will run north of $300,000; while larger homes with 4,000 or more square feet built in the last twenty years can be listed near $900,000. Proximity to the Lake Ontario waterfront drives up prices on the northwest side of town, as properties often come with stairs or walkways that lead to the expansive Great Lake.
