A person moving to the Hudson Valley asked residents where they should look for homes and these are the top answers.

It looks as if the dust is starting to settle a little bit but home values remain to be costly. How could anyone afford to live here? It's a legitimate question to ask. Many are forced to rent until the housing market drops a little bit more.
