The borough of Madison is a suburban community positioned about thirty miles west of Manhattan, roughly an hour away by train. The picturesque hamlet has long been a coveted location for New York City-area commuters, with families in particular drawn by its picturesque neighborhoods, exceptional public schools, and one of the lowest crime rates in the nation.
The charming Downtown district serves as the cultural epicenter of the community, with a thriving palette of dining and nightlife options as well as hosting annual events like the wildly popular Bottle Hill day celebration every autumn. Farleigh Dixon University serves around 12,000 students from its campus on the north side of the borough, and the smaller Drew University operates adjacent to Downtown, injecting a youthful collegiate energy into the community.
