White Plains is a great city. My favorite part is the amount of diversity and respect held within neighborhoods and people in general. No matter the race, gender, any type of looks, etc, there is no judgement and creates a safe space for everyone to be themselves! The only change I would make would be more different areas to explore. After living here for so long, there aren't a bunch of new places to explore. Overall, a great city.
Very nice bedroom community. Close to NYC, but has plenty of retail right downtown. What's nice is you have some beautiful residential neighborhoods in close proximity of the business district. Close to all highways, very easy and convenient place to live with great city services.
I loved the diversity throughout the town and the the school system. Residents are provided access to many stores and restaurants right downtown! I was given a chance to also participate on White Plain's varsity track team where I met coaches and people who will see you past your limits and potential. The rigor throughout the education system was also tremendous.
