"Tarrytown, mostly great!"

Tarrytown is mostly a great place to live and to visit. I live in Manhattan and take day trips there now and then. People are warm, friendly and in fact diverse. Only bad encounter was from a recent visit. An elderly Caucasian man with his wife were walking two Shiba Inu dogs, and he tried to KICK my puppy when my puppy did not do anything. People nearby confronted him, and so did I. He told me to "go home." Other than him, I had never met anyone as offensive, ignorant and rude as him in Tarrytown. People told me they actually knew who he was and thought he was usually obnoxious. I hate to say this, but people like him truly give towns a bad name.
I was deeply touched by how strangers stood up against him when they did not know me nor my puppy.
This should tell you how great the Tarrrytown people are.
Place is very cute and pretty. It definitely provides a nice break from Manhattan!
