I really appreciate all the feed back, it seems like i'm making the right choice to move, by the way I'll be renting for now. I want to thank all that gave me something to think about.
My family and I live in Dutchess county. I my self am not happy with the area we live in but someone I got to know in this area actually had moved from the Bronx and is very happy and would never look back. I feel you should still look into this area but keep in mind of the school district as you have a son that needs a safe environment. The areas you have mentioned I have heard from others are O.K. Beacon, Newburgh are not good choices as I discovered. Best thing you are doing now is your research. I wish I done that to begin with because I wouldn't be here right now. Good luck!
