Stretching for more than 30 miles along the scenic Hudson River, Rensselaer County is located in the heart of New York's Capital Region. The quality of life as portrayed in its 14 towns, six villages, and two cities, is a mix of New England independence and close-knit communities. Just minutes from the bustle of the county seat in Troy, are thriving suburbs and unspoiled countryside, including thousands of acres of parks and scores of lakes and ponds. Recreational activities abound with every season, from golf, fishing, and hiking, to skiing, skating and more. Arts centers and museums, as well as live performances, all thrive in Rensselaer County’s cultural attractions.
The economic, educational, and recreational opportunities to be found in the county are unrivaled, making it an excellent place to live, to work, to shop, to raise a family, and especially to start or expand a business. In fact, the Tech Valley region has an employment outlook that consistently surpasses national averages. The area also ranks high on Richard Florida’s Creativity Index, a measure of a community’s arts, culture and creative professions.
Top off all of these attributes with a blend of rural and hi-tech influences, and you’ve found a county that is truly appealing. Once you come to Rensselaer County, you’ll never want to leave.
