"New Rochelle has a little something for everyone"
New Rochelle is an interesting city that holds great wealth as can be seen in the more tucked away suburbanite neighborhoods with their gated pseudo-mansions and stunning old homes. Yet somehow it never comes across as pretentious or snobby and actually has a relatively diverse melting pot of a population. It also has a good deal of living options that include more affordable apartments that cater in particular to the college crowd.
