The center of the neighborhood of Riverdale, hugged by Spuyten Duyvil and North Riverdale, Central Riverdale is a lush green neighborhood that mirrors a wealthy suburb. While this area is more expensive than other neighborhoods, you get way more bang for your buck.
Central Riverdale began life as an out of the way escape for wealthy residents of both NYC and upstate New York. Throughout the 1800’s, Riverdale slowly accrued more of the city’s elite. In 1874, the West Bronx was incorporated into NYC, which began further development.
During the 1900’s, it was business as usual in the neighborhood, which was able to escape most of the darker moments faced by the rest of the city. Largely due to the people who lived there, Central Riverdale continued to thrive and develop.
Eventually, large and spacious apartment complexes began to join the large family estates, meaning a more diverse group of people could move here. Today, Riverdale is still on the wealthy side, with members of the middle class starting to make a name for themselves in the area.
Central Riverdale largely resembles a suburb in upstate New York. Most of the structures in the area are large yet short, family homes, many of which are equipped with a yard. Larger apartments, and even skyscrapers, are also present and in development as time marches on.
Calm and serene, Central Riverdale is a neighborhood full of good schools, parks, and space. The population density of this neighborhood is a fraction of other neighborhoods in The Bronx, which means there’s plenty of opportunity to stretch out and relax.
This is not a party neighborhood. There are some great restaurants and bars, but the neighborhood is a quiet escape from the hustle of the rest of the city. Residents here can expect privacy and security.
Riverdale is ideal for families. There are great schools, great hospitals, and tons of green space to enjoy. Living arrangements are large, with plenty of room for families to grow and thrive. The neighborhood is on the expensive side. However, those who can afford this area will love it. Riverdale is perfect for families.
