A Great City with Plenty to Offer Everyone 3.5 rating By Anonymous ( May 16, 2018) It is great to live in Pearl River, NY and some of the main attractions are the Palisades Center Mall where you can shop in popular shops. Bear Mountain State Park is filled with outdoor sports for everyone that consist of hiking, swimming, skating and fishing. You can also visit ...Read More the Blue Hill Golf Course and participate in your favorite sport.

I think this city has plenty to offer singles and married families alike because it has a low crime rate with affordable housing. The cost of living is high, and it may be difficult to by a home without a decent income. The good news is that the employment rate is good, and I have always found work in this city.

There are plenty of amenities in the neighborhood and you can find many ways to keep yourself occupied. There a fitness centers, restaurants and shopping centers in the area. There are many places to jog and take part in cycling. Read Less
