Residents of the Upper Lancaster Neighborhood find themselves in a welcoming community where neighbors become friends. It is a walkable neighborhood with easy access to commercial establishments, fine dining, churches and Price Chopper. Two neighborhood associations serve the area where newcomers are welcomed, issues that affect the community are addressed, and actions taken to preserve the quality of life and to promote community.

The neighborhood is adjacent to beautiful Washington Park with its annual Tulip Festival, and is a short walk from the Empire State Plaza. Community policing has worked well to provide a blanket of security for residents. It is a wonderful place to live.
