About Alexander
Located in southern Genesee County, Alexander is a quiet, scenic community centered around the crossroads of Route 98 and U.S. Route 20. Tonawanda Creek winds through the area, adding to the town's relaxed, rural feel. Residents enjoy plenty of open green space and a slower pace of living, all while staying just a short drive south of Batavia for shopping, dining, and easy access to the New York State Thruway.
The village center carries plenty of historic character, highlighted by the striking 1830s cobblestone Town Hall that also houses a local museum. The Alexander Central School District sits right in town, giving the area a convenient and supportive neighborhood environment for families. It is a great fit for anyone seeking affordable space, a friendly small-town atmosphere, and straightforward commutes across Western New York.
