Vanessa Williams lives in Chappaqua, Mary J and Chris Rock live in Saddle River NJ.

She lives there now, I believe, and if I'm not mistaken she's from Tarrytown. |

Yeah, I've NEVER seen a celebrity in all the time I've been in and out of the city and lived here. I tend to not notice people when I'm walking, so that's probably why. It would be cool to see a celeb, but I wouldn't go up to them and talk to them. I guess that's how most NYers view celebs.
Though when I was about 12 years old, I saw the guy who played the dad on Pete and Pete (who I don't really consider a celeb). Now that was cool for a 12 year old, lol. It was around Christmas, right by Macy's.

Ok, ok, this will tell me what neighborhoods to avoid! (As in, way too expensive.)

It doesn't really matter. In NYC, your neighbor may make 500k a year and live in a beautiful condo, but the buidling you live in next door is a studio apt. worth no more than $900 p/mth above a little pizza joint. |

and sometimes the rich condo guy buys up all the pies and the poor guy next door is out of a dinner.
probably best to avoid celeb area if you can anyway. |

Yes, there are movie directors living in the Woods of Arden/South East Annadale area, along with Steven Segal. |

If Staten Island is good enough for movie directors, how come it seems like everyone on this forum is always putting it down? Is it just the daily commute that makes it undesirable?
