Edit
Troy sits on the eastern bank of the Hudson River just northeast of Albany, carrying the weight of a 19th-century industrial powerhouse that has steadily reinvented itself without losing its grit or character. Known as Collar City for its once-dominant collar and cuff manufacturing industry, Troy today anchors the Capital District with a mix of academic energy and deep architectural heritage. Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, founded here in 1824 as the oldest technological university in the English-speaking world, and Russell Sage College both shape the city's intellectual atmosphere. Downtown revolves around Monument Square and River Street, where restored Victorian buildings and converted industrial spaces create a walkable core. The Washington Park Historic District offers beautifully preserved brownstones, while Lansingburgh to the north delivers classic brick rowhouses on quieter residential blocks.

The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
