Places in Upstate NY with some degree of walkability that are not in a city or village

Would Lake George count? It's sorta kinda walkable a little bit. I don't think it's a city or village.

I thought that the village might have dissolved, but it looks like it is still around: Village Of Lake George: Homepage: [Digital Towpath]

Kenmore is a village, but it has more of a streetcar suburb look and feel - think Brookline, Evanston, Cleveland Heights, etc.

The Doyle and Town Park neighborhoods in Cheektowaga. Working class neighborhoods that are essentially outgrowths of the old East Side.

Some blue collar neighborhoods in West Seneca, inside the 90 loop.

Railroad suburbs of Buffalo - central Lancaster (technically a village, but not the "quaintly quaint" kind), City of Tonawanda (one of the three "Tonawandas" - not really a central city), etc.

Generally, Buffalo's suburbs tend to be denser and more walkable than suburban Rochester, Syracuse, and Albany, but "walkable" is relative. Sidewalks are much more common in suburban Buffalo than the 'burbs of other Thruway cities.

What else ... maybe some pre-WWII neighborhoods in Brighton and Irondequoit, outside Rochester?

Pine Hill appears to be another one in this regard: https://www.google.com/maps/@42.9185...6!9m2!1b1!2i38


Cleveland Hill as well, but is more middle class: https://www.google.com/maps/@42.9488...6!9m2!1b1!2i38
