Living in Buchanan, NY
Buchanan is a small, scenic village along the Hudson River in the Town of Cortlandt in northern Westchester County. With a population of just over 2,300, it has a close‑knit, relaxed community feel and tree‑lined residential streets that give it a classic small‑town charm while still being within reach of regional amenities.
Parks, Recreation & Outdoor Spaces
Residents enjoy riverside recreation at spots like Lent’s Cove Park with scenic walking paths along the Hudson River and the Tropiano Trail, as well as community parks with playgrounds, sports courts, and swimming facilities. Nearby Blue Mountain Reservation offers extensive trails for hiking, biking, and nature exploration.
Convenient Commute & Location
Buchanan is well‑situated for regional travel, with access to the Metro‑North Hudson Line at Cortlandt or Peekskill stations providing direct service to NYC in about an hour. It’s also near U.S. Routes 9 and 9A and the Westchester Bee‑Line bus system, making commuting and travel throughout Westchester County convenient.

Proximity to Metro‑North for direct access to Manhattan
-
Scenic Hudson River parks, walking trails, and waterfront access
