Hoover Dr, Middletown

I grew up on this street to recall many a fond memory today. It's a great place to start a family, and one of the premiere residential areas in Presidential Heights, as its known. Great for morning runs down the peak of Hoover, enabling you to view the mountain ranges and hazy purple sunsets of the Hudson Valley. Good schools, and convenient access to Route 17. The only drawback, like most of suburbia, is that nothing is within walking distance for sure, but even with a car, you're looking at a handful of decent restaurants in Middletown, outside of generic chains.
