Is Valley Cottage like a boring suburban outpost? If we want Nyack would we be unhappy w/ the feel of Valley Cottage?
We've been wanting to move to Nyack. We like that there are lots of people in the arts, it's liberal and it seems like a lively place to live. I think people that would be attracted to Nyack are people ( I know- who know really) that I'd like as my neighbors.
Well, we might not be able to find what we're looking for in Nyack bc we'd like more outdoor space so we're looking at Valley Cottage.
BUT, when I look at the houses there, they're so dull. How can I say this? Does this reflect who lives there in general? Or are they primarily like us: people who want to be in or near Nyack but want more space and can't afford Nyack prices?

Valley Cottage is just another suburban bump in the lansdscape of Rockland County. As with most areas the roads need work, the town look tired and the taxes will kill you...just my flippant opinion.
@rusty78 we are looking at Piermont although there's not so much available. (under 550k) We're looking at all river towns that have a lovely town center. We'll be moving out from CA in the spring and will most likely rent for a year to get to know the area we want to live in.

As in any area you might pick....unless you are planning on dieing in your next home you should be looking at the schools first......for Rockland County is basically a bedroom community where most residents travel out of the county to work......and home values are based on the schools...
Unless you have been to Rockland and know where you want to live...I would consider staying at an extended stay hotel...this will give you some time to look the area over before you sign a lease and find yourself stuck in an area you do not like...there is one in Nanuet that takes pets that is well centered in Rockland...
