Mount Vernon, NY

Mount Vernon is a city rich in history and tradition, built on the backs of men and women who worked hard to make this a working wonderful and productive community of homes and people.

From its inception, this was a planned community, fashioned from high hopes and modest expectations. The first residents were hard-working people who came up from neighboring New York City seeking a genteel and tranquil way of life away from the tumultuous existence of urban living.

Mount Vernon outgrew these notions many decades ago. The City has evolved from a spirited, insular experiment involving participants from basically similar backgrounds to a cosmopolitan reality - a diverse, liberalized order with representatives from over 98 different nations living in close proximity to his neighbor and learning from one another.
