Ulster County Reviews
Rating 3.5 out of 5 2 reviews
Overall, Ulster County is an decent county full of nice and supportive people with many attractions and sights such as apple picking and local nature trails. There are numerous people with different backgrounds and beliefs so you will find your niche. However, like most rural counties there aren't many jobs and commutes to work can be long sometimes. Nightlife can be quiet since there are only a few tiny bars and places to hang out, it's very relaxed environment.
The area is nice and people are friendly. The culture here is very welcoming. With a lot of events that occur all over, that celebrates everything.
