Welcome to the Hudson Valley!

The Hudson Valley is a collection of towns and small cities along the Hudson River, stretching for more than 100 miles from Albany in the north to Yonkers near New York City.

Immigration in the Hudson Valley
People immigrate to the Hudson Valley for many reasons. A strong pull is the local economy, which is diverse and strong. The lower cost of living and doing business is also a draw, while still being accessible by train or car to New York City. Like the United States generally, the Hudson Valley has long provided opportunity for those with the drive to work hard for a better future.
Get Active!
While within commuting distance of New York City, the Hudson Valley has ample opportunity for getting outdoors. The Hudson River runs north from the Adirondack Mountains to downtown Manhattan in the south, and offers opportunities for kayaking, sailing, and fishing. In the summer, many Hudson Valley towns provide public pool access for a small fee, and people come from far away to ascend Breakneck Ridge in Cold Spring (Dutchess County), considered the most popular hike in the U.S.
Art and Culture
Art galleries, music halls, and bookstores abound. Consider the Storm King Art Center, located in New Windsor (Orange County), with massive, outdoor sculptures that visitors can see and touch. In Woodstock (Ulster County), you may be interested in exploring the Karma Triyana Dharmachakra Tibetan Monastery, or the Bethel Woods Center for the Arts in Bethel.
A Strong Local Economy
Economic opportunities are myriad in the Hudson Valley. Immigrants may find work in technology, food service, agriculture, and arts and design, among many other fields. With housing costs lower than in New York City, many are able to purchase their own home, putting down roots in the area.
Prominent companies in the Hudson Valley include IBM (Poughkeepsie), Taconic Biosciences (Germantown), Regeneron Pharmaceuticals (Tarrytown), Westchester Medical Center (Valhalla), and DocuWare (Beacon).
