About Rye

Rye is a small city on Long Island Sound that has been a place in its own right since 1660, and it still behaves like one — its own mayor, its own police, its own school district, and a Main Street that predates almost everything around it. What separates it physically from the North Shore towns across the water is the ground itself: this is Westchester, so the shoreline is exposed bedrock and tidal marsh rather than sand and bulkhead, and the land has shape to it. Milton Harbor and the Blind Brook marshes wrap the southern edge, the old summer estates sit on the points, and the New Haven Line puts Grand Central inside forty minutes. It is the rare address where a genuinely coastal setting and a genuinely fast commute are not a trade-off.

This figure does not represent the share of homes or parcels at risk in Rye — only the share of FEMA-mapped area within a 2-mile radius of the town's page coordinates, not a property count or a town-wide figure; the flood zone of any single address, which must be confirmed against its own FIRM panel before pricing insurance; 7.1% open water within that radius — it counts toward the total this percentage is measured against and lowers it mechanically, not because the shoreline itself is lower risk.

Rye City School District serves the City of Rye and is not the only district with "Rye" in its name — Rye Neck, Blind Brook-Rye and Port Chester-Rye serve neighbouring places, and a Rye mailing address does not by itself decide which one a parcel is in. Confirm the district before pricing on it.

Per-pupil expenditure is not published in a form we can verify, so we do not show a figure for it.

The Commute

Getting to Rye

Metro-North
Rye is on Metro-North’s New Haven Line, not the LIRR. Express trains reach Grand Central in about 38 minutes and locals in around 50, with the station in the middle of the city rather than out on its edge — one of the reasons the walkable blocks around it hold their premium.
By Car
I-95 and the Hutchinson River Parkway both run through the city; Midtown is roughly 45 minutes off-peak and considerably more at rush hour. The Parkway is usually the better of the two into Manhattan.
