Current Resident: I've been living here for little over 3 years now, and i can say that this town is a great place to reside in. For instance, ever year there is the whipple city festival, which always has a great turn out. This an event that the whole town gets involved in. This town also has the small town feel in which everyone knows everyone. I really like this town and the county.

Hudson Falls

• Town in New York
• 16 reviews

Current Resident: I have lived in Hudson falls for two years now. Overall I think it is a nice little town. A variety of places to eat and all are very affordable. Market 32 for healthy grocery shopping. Bowling alley for family entertainment. Convenient location not far from the Adirondacks for some hiking or great picture taking! I love the country part of Hudson falls with the farms and so does my son! We live in a quiet neighborhood only six houses down from my son's school! We are looking forward to the warmer weather so that we can walk to school!

Argyle

• Town in New York
• 2 reviews

Current Resident: argyle is a very small town located in upstate New York. It has not a single stop light in the entire town and is equipped with a dollar general and Stewart’s. Recently we passed a law that it is now legal to sell alcohol in the town which is a big deal after going so many years with it being banned. In the future argyle is going to expand drastically, from restaurants and breweries. The town of argyle has a lot of potential in the near future.

Hampton

• Town in New York

Niche User: I really enjoy the community here. It's a small place, so after a while it seems like you get to know almost everyone. Some people say that there isn't a lot to do, but I think that depends on how creative you are. There aren't a lot of museums or shops to go to, but there are a lot of places to go hiking, swimming, or sledding.

Whitehall

• Town in New York
• 7 reviews

Nearby Resident: I grew up around this area, I have great childhood memories there. To me it's bittersweet being back in and around the area I grew up in. My daughter is now growing up in the same area as I did. She jokes about it as I'm trying to finish off my degree and she's in elementary school we both sit down and do our homework together. I'm showing her that it doesn't matter how old you are its never too late to follow your dreams and ambitions.
