ABOUT ROCKLAND COUNTY

Rockland County is one of the most attractive and desirable places to live in the Tri-State area.

With award-winning, nationally recognized school systems and one of the lowest crime rates in the nation, Rockland communities are peaceful and unspoiled. The County is bordered by the foothills of the Ramapo Mountains on one side and one of the world?s most beautiful river valleys on the other. In-between Rockland is dotted with pristine lakes and sparkling streams.

Nearly one-third of the entire County ­ 32,000 acres ­ is protected state and national parkland, perfect for hiking, fishing, swimming and boating.

Despite Rockland?s rural charm, the County?s proximity to New York City ­ 16 miles ­ makes getting into the City for work or fun fast and easy.
