Shopping, Services and a great blend of Dining. Brighton Commons Plaza is my favorite with easy parking...the merchants offers a variety of Shopping options from Gifts to Upscale Furniture & Clothing Consignment and GOlfTec for year-round lessons , a Spa, Bridal Salon, Orthodontics, Hair Salon, Dining, Tailoring, and The Best Custard! One of Rochester's most recognized original shopping plazas!
Brighton is a very safe and united community. The resources provided here is phenomenal and the community gives back so much. The public schools are some of the best in New York. Everyone is so friendly and kind! Also, it is a very open community with beautiful parks. Although I could say that it needs more diversity, everyone is so accepting and open minded!
Brighton is beautiful and I feel very safe. The school district is great and it is very family friendly in my opinion. Given it is a suburb there isn't any night life, it's about a 15 min commute. Houses can be expensive and kind of old, but it is a good neighborhood. Could be more diverse.
