Relocating to Goshen/Warwick NY (Middletown, Greenwood Lake: good schools, taxes, living in)

[oliviaday]

Need Advise- I am interested in relocating to ORange County Ny, My husband is a fireman for NYC and he needs to commute into NYC. We currently live on Staten Island and want a better life for our children, larger house, property and good schools. However, living in the tri-state area for over 35 years I'm nervouse about moving...If any one lives in Goshen, NY and can give me any details about Goshen I would really appriciate the feed back.. I heard the schools are good, taxe's aren't that high, a family community. We have taken a few rides around the town and village and like it so far, but concerend about the people! How are the people? Friendly, outgoing, rude? what about the schools/churches? I'm looking for a place where people respect other's, say hello to one another, family friendly , and the absence of the "F" word used in every other word, that's the only word people know here on staten island, it's disgusting! I not a prude in using 4 lettered words, but their is a time and a place, like when your in the car by yourself and the windows are rollled up!! Any info on this commuity would be most beneficial!! thanks

I, and others have written about these towns in other threads. I suggest using the, "Search" function above to search this forum using the term, "Warwick" or "Goshen". You should get a lot of information from those as there have been many threads of late asking about these towns.

Try Minisink {Westtown} it's safe and alot of firemen and police officers are moving there it's a growing area and the taxes aren't as high as Goshen and Warwick It' close to the Mall for shopping and the supermarkets in Middletown and in PA and you border Nj for the gas prices. The schools are great and the people are freindly.

Jason Els is right, there is plenty on here about all of those towns. And no, you will not hear the "F" word in Orange County: it is forbidden by law. I've been here six years and never heard it once! There are fiiremen and policemen everywhere. You might also want to consider parts of the Greenwood Lake area -- not directly in the village, but outside. It is still part of the Town of Warwick and much closer to the city for commuting.
