Upstate NY Fall

If you're looking for a place to call home in Upstate New York, many cities have been experiencing rapid population growth over the last few years, as more and more people discover the beauty and community life of unique and distinct towns in the region. Our team at Arnoff Moving & Storage has been a Capital District moving company since 1924 and has gotten to know many of these towns over the years.

Offering many stunning landscapes and formations, including Niagara Falls, the Catskill Mountains and many breathtaking waterfalls, it's no wonder more and more people are relocating to Upstate New York. Below, we discuss some of the cities in the area that are trending right now, and what you can expect if you decide to settle down in any of these beautiful and thriving communities.

Why Many Families are Choosing Albany & the Capital Region

Albany, the quaint capital of the Empire State, is home to just over 101,000 people, and offers a great place for families to call home. Not only are there excellent school districts located in Albany and the rest of the Capital Region, but the cost of living is quite affordable compared to the rest of the state and has a growing job market with plenty of career opportunities in government, healthcare and technology.

As longtime Albany movers, we know this area has both rural settings and urban neighborhoods, allowing everyone to find their own place to fit into the Albany community.

Hudson Valley Growth: Poughkeepsie, Kingston & Newburgh

During the COVID pandemic, many towns in the Hudson Valley experienced rapid growth, with over 60,000 people relocating from other parts of the state to the rich history and beautiful scenery of the Hudson Valley. While the area isn't receiving the same heavy numbers of expats these days, many towns still make our up-and-coming list, including:

  • Poughkeepsie: If you're looking for a cultural hub with a diverse community to call home, our Hudson Valley movers can help you relocate to Poughkeepsie!
  • Kingston: Known for its artsy vibe with unique shops and restaurants, Kingston offers an affordable take on a Brooklyn-style atmosphere to those relocating to the area.
  • Newburgh: In recent years, a revitalized Newburgh has become a great place to call home for those that want convenient transportation options.

Westchester & White Plains: Up-and-Coming Hotspots for Relocating

Westchester County is another area of Upstate New York that's been undergoing rapid transformation as of late, specifically in its central hub, White Plains. This area offers both the amenities and convenience of urban life and the charm and slower pace of suburban neighborhoods, so no matter what you prefer for your new home, you'll be able to find it in White Plains! There are many other cities in the region where our Westchester movers have been helping folks move frequently, such as:

  • New Rochelle
  • Tarrytown
  • Pleasantville
  • Lewisboro
  • Bronxville
  • Ardsley
