Yonkers Overview

An inner suburb of New York City and lying directly north of the Bronx, Yonkers is a hugely popular location in the Empire State. The 4th most populated locale of New York, just behind large cities such as Rochester and Buffalo, Yonkers apartments offer much in the way of location, amenities and culture for anyone on the hunt for a new place to call home.

What is the history of Yonkers?

Originally a small farming town, Yonkers was incorporated in 1872 and grew steadily. Due to its proximity to the Bronx it was often referred to as 'the 6th Borough, and the connection of the New York Central Railroad in 1888 saw the city expand its population even faster. Yonkers acted as a hub of manufacturing into the 1900s, including plastics and automobiles, and the Otis Elevator Factory remained a strong local employer until the early 1980s. Today, Yonkers apartments largely act as bedroom communities for those commuting to the epicenter of New York City.

How is the weather in Yonkers?

How do I get around town?

Public transportation near Yonkers rentals is vast, with bus service by the MTA and the Metro-North Railroad both seeing huge daily use.

What is the Yonkers commute like?

Traffic in the city can be quite heavy, especially during peak morning and late afternoon drive times. A wide array of major roads criss-cross the city, including the NYS Thruway, The Sawmill Parkway, and the Bronx River Parkway, as well as slightly more 'scenic' routes such as Route 9. A number of these are toll roads, and again the heavy daily congestion undoubtedly leads many Yonkers apartment residents to utilize public transport.

What are the local media outlets?

The New York Post and the New York Times are both widely read in the city, and just about every major television network is reached with ease thanks to a plethora of local affiliates for NBC, FOX and the like.
