First post here. I grew up here but left for a while. Household incomes average around $67,447 in Haverstraw. The school system varies a lot by neighborhood. I'd say it's better for families than young singles.

Used to live on the Oak Park side, now on the East side. Completely different vibe. I genuinely enjoy living here.

I've lived in Maple Ridge for about 10 years now, so I can give you a pretty detailed perspective.
it exceeded my expectations. When I first moved here from Boston, I was surprised by nightlife. It took some adjustment but now I wouldn't trade it.
A few things worth knowing:
- Great outdoor activities nearby
- Close to major attractions
- The school system scene is tough
The downsides:
- Not very walkable outside downtown
- Road conditions need improvement
Overall I'd rate it 6/10 for families. Your mileage may vary depending on what you're looking for..

From a safety perspective, it really depends on the area. Some neighborhoods are pretty good, others not so much. Do your research on specific streets.

As someone who grew up here, I'm still on the fence after all this time. A lot has changed in the past few years though. cultural scene used to be much pricey but now it's surprisingly good.
