The Town of Mount Pleasant is located in central Westchester County, New York approximately thirty miles north of New York City. It is bounded on the north by the Towns of New Castle and Ossining, on the south by the Town of Greenburgh, on the east by the Kensico Reservoir and the Town of North Castle, and on the west by the Hudson River. Within its boundaries lie the incorporated villages of Pleasantville, Sleepy Hollow, and a small portion of Briarcliff Manor. The remaining area of the Town is unincorporated and includes the hamlets of Hawthorne, Thornwood, Valhalla, and Pocantico Hills. The Town has a population of approximately 45,000.

The Town is a mix of residential and commercial areas consisting of single-family homes, apartments and estates, and commercial areas.

We are a large and diverse town with much to offer those seeking a suburban atmosphere that is accessible to nearby urban settings such as New York City and White Plains. We have a robust Recreation and Parks Department with programming for all ages, excellent and resourceful emergency services, skilled highway and water departments that help keep our infrastructure up to date, and many other departments that help to make our Town such an amazing place to live.
