As a current student in the Chappaqua Central School District, I think Chappaqua is a well rounded suburb and district. The school, especially the high school offers diverse courses in the performing arts and extracurriculars including sports and clubs. The teachers have long office hours and most have after school session where students can ask for 1-on-1 help. The high school also offers a variety of AP courses for those that want to challenge themselves. Besides the aspect of education, the community is also great. Everyone is very tight with their neighbors and can feel safe in their homes. There is limited racism and sexism as inclusion is one of the things the community values. However as 83% of the residents here are white, there is undoubtedly still some racism that occurs. Personally I have never experienced any, but I know those that have and have seen racism in posts online posted by some of our fellow residents.
Wealthy neighborhood with majority of white upper class families. Extremely safe and schools are excellent but very competitive. Luck of diversity in the community. Easy commute to the city. Brand new Whole Foods in town. Downtown has a few nice stores and restaurants but many vacant storefront. Convenient access to neighboring town, villages with bigger downtown.
The population of Chappaqua is mostly white, Jewish, and rich, although there are relatively significant numbers of Asian families living here. There is not much to do in town, with barely any shops, however, the "Chappaqua Crossing" between Chappaqua and Mount Kisco has more shops and places to go with friends. The school system here, Chappaqua Central School District, is very well put together, with high rankings and test scores. Many kids go to college after high school, and there's a lot of stress on students. Chappaqua has its own train station, and we are around one-hour train ride into New York City.
