I enjoy our small town and unity, however, Armonk is not a very diverse community and is also a very expensive town. If you are looking to send your children to a small preppy public high school, Armonk is the place to do it. Many people drive expensive cars and wear expensive clothes. The kids have house parties over the weekend or take trains into the city. During the week our small town full of original stores are packed. There are no chains or big companies in Armonk town aside from CVS. It has a nice homey feel to it, but nothing is really open late except for Fortina or Amore, both great restaurants.

I like the environment of the town but not the people as much. The land is well kept and weather is usually nice. There is a beautiful park in the middle of town that is utilized to host holiday and recreational events every year. The variety of food and goods choice is solid; it's not just commercial stores and restaurants there are personal ones as well. But, the people that live in this town are not as nice. Quite a few of them are reserved and seemingly selfish people that only really care about themselves. This makes it hard to enjoy some moments that should have been enjoyed.
Armonk is a small and beautiful town in Westchester with many privileges to students like myself. The school district is academically challenging and the town itself is very safe. Something I would like to see change is the diversity and seeing more racially diverse people encompass the town.
