    Small but warm and close-knit community with many opportunities and welcoming peers. Everyone is accepted in this 1-square-mile town, with convenient proximity to the city and many modes of travel. Diversity is lacking.
    Ardsley is a great community of people that constantly come together to better each other. There are a lot of opportunities for jobs, education, and more. There also is a lot of dining experiences, events, etc. for the families to constantly be enjoying. However, I feel that our town is a bit run down and the local administration does not try and update or change anything for the better of the town. It seems as if they do not really listen to the residents or care what type of businesses come into the town.
