Yorktown, NY is a town in northern Westchester County that is situated close to the New York-Putnam County border. In fact, Yorktown is attractive to New York City, especially because it offers a suburban atmosphere while only being 38 miles from midtown Manhattan.
Jefferson Valley Mall is the area’s major shopping center, featuring two floors and over 70 shops and eateries.
Yorktown, which includes Yorktown Heights, is a popular next-phase location for many who’ve spent their growing years in southern Westchester County, because many would-be buyers feel they get “more bang for their buck” by going 30-40 minutes north.

Yorktown has a newly revitalized downtown area that is home to several eateries and coffee shops. Additionally, Yorktown has a very historic heritage. Many years ago, much of Yorktown was part of the manor of Cortlandt—now known as Cortlandt Manor—which was established by King William III in the seventeenth century.
