Mount Kisco is one of Westchester's most vibrant communities. Approximately 3 square miles, it is geographically small, but it delivers big. Located 43 miles from New York City, it is easily commutable by train or car, though there is little need to ever leave as Mount Kisco is known as a premier destination for shopping, dining, entertainment, and award-winning medical care. Boutiques, bistros, and a movie theater line the walkable downtown urban village, while a variety of residential neighborhoods featuring some sprawling lawns and historic homes fan around it. Part of the highly regarded Bedford Central School District, Mount Kisco is a village of varied faiths, backgrounds, and income levels. Residents and visitors value this tight-knit community, considering it a little village with a big heart.*

According to its residents, Mount Kisco is the town where you can find a starter home, a family home and a dream home. Neighborhoods like Kirbyville, Parkview Heights and Captain Merritt's Hill spiral the downtown like a jewel box of authentic victorian and colonial properties.

A hidden gem in plain sight

Children still ride their bikes through the village, families visit on front porches, and in the fall, everyone heads downtown for "Septemberfest," the biggest block party in the Big Little Village. Other annual events include several parades, the Kisco 5k Run (with a short "Mad Dash" for kids) a popular summer restaurant week, and winter Fire and Ice Festival. Find more information about Mount Kisco's events here. http://mtkiscochamber.com/site/

A hidden gem in plain sight, Mount Kisco is popular with young professionals, families and seniors alike, and welcomes you to come for a meal, a little league game, or even to stay for good.
