Yorktown is only 25 miles from White Plains and a 60 minute train ride to Manhattan, but proximity is only one great reason to choose Yorktown. Residents here love the wealth of outdoor things to do in the town’s many parks and open spaces– swimming, hiking, cycling, sports, and circuit training. Students from all five of Yorktown’s hamlets: Crompond, Mohegan Lake, Shrub Oak, Jefferson Valley and Yorktown Heights attend the Yorktown school district.
During the American Revolution, soldiers from the Continental Army’s First Rhode Island Regiment were stationed in Yorktown Heights. Today, the town has a monument to the American soldiers, a museum that traces the local history and customs from Yorktown’s earliest settlers and the restored train depot is a local, state, and federal landmark in town. Major retailers for shopping are a short drive away and the Westchester Ballet Center for Performing Arts and the Yorktown Stage have a variety of cultural offerings for all ages.
