Not for everyone

I have lived in NY my whole life, have traveled extensively. Orange County NY is not for everyone. Very very short summers. Cabin fever is a definite. You can spend weeks were you dont even see your neighbors! Horrible winters. Lovely views and overall safe place to live. But it is getting to be very expensive. Everything is a 20 minute drive away. Hardly no culture, the little that there is is very bohemian, country, redneckish...no technology jobs. Biggest employers are the jails, hospitals, and retail shops. Malls all over the place. If you like the country quite life than it is for you but if you like to have a life and not feel like a hermit. DONT COME HERE!!!
