Resting just over six miles north of the Bronx and 15 miles north of the heart of Manhattan, South Side is a relatively quiet suburban section of the city of Mount Vernon, New York. There’s a vibrant charm to this part of the city, with dense tree-lined streets and a thriving community atmosphere. Long-standing apartment buildings and architecturally historic neighborhoods and houses give South Side an incredible Upstate feel. With a thriving downtown business district, a diverse dining scene, and a burgeoning arts scene, it’s easy to see why many former New Yorkers retreat here to get a bigger slice of the pie. South Side is far from secluded, however. Midtown Manhattan is accessible via Interstate 87 or a combination of buses and the 5 Metro train.
