If you are ok with apartment living, look into the Riverfront Apartment complex in Yokers - great views, 25 min Metro North ride into Grand Central, 35+ minute drive to midtown, and someone told me they are having a tough time filling those appts. due to the economy - so it is a great time to push your real estate agent around. Also, they are a 15 minute drive from the GW Bridge to NJ if you must go there.
Failing that you will not find much for 2k in lower Westchester.

I disagree. I think NJ does a MUCH better job of coping with snow than either NYC or Westchester. I've done a reverse commute and when it snowed, the best thing was that when I got to NJ, the roads were much better plowed and maintained. Westchester is also a nightmare.
