About Harriman

Harriman is a quiet village in Orange County, New York, nestled right at the edge of the sprawling Harriman State Park. Home to around 2,600 residents, the community spans parts of Monroe and Woodbury, offering a peaceful, small-town setting tucked into the lower Hudson Valley. It has deep roots as a historic railroad hub named for railroad executive E. H. Harriman, and today it combines relaxed residential neighborhoods with easy access to rugged nature.

Families often look to the village for its placement within the well-regarded Monroe-Woodbury Central School District. Outdoor recreation is a major draw, with hundreds of miles of hiking trails, quiet lakes, and scenic spots along Seven Lakes Drive right outside your front door. For everyday errands and entertainment, the popular Woodbury Common Premium Outlets are just down the road, while direct train service and major highway connections make commuting into New York City straightforward and manageable.
