About Webster

Located about twelve miles northeast of Rochester, the village of Webster sits right at the heart of the surrounding town. Home to around 5,600 people, the village offers a welcoming small-town atmosphere with a walkable historic center. Its roots date back to the early nineteenth century, and that charm is still easy to see in the classic storefronts, local diners, and leafy residential streets branching off Main Street.

Families are often drawn here for the well-regarded Webster Central School District and plenty of neighborhood green space, including popular spots like Veterans Memorial Park and Harmony Park. Community traditions bring neighbors together throughout the year, highlighted by the lively Village Days festival each August. With Route 104 and Route 590 nearby, commuting into Rochester for work is simple, leaving weekends open to enjoy nearby Lake Ontario.
