Welcome to the Adirondacks in upstate New York State.  Living in the Adirondack Park is one of the best nature’s 4 season area to live in the US.  Of course, us Adirondacker’s are a bit prejudice and for good cause.  There are many flavors to explore in our 6M acre park.   If you are thinking of one day relocating or retiring to this part of the country, below are some tools to help you in your decision making process*.  This feature is all part of our interactive forum, called “In and Around the Adirondack Park.”  

Be sure to visit our Master Directory of Communities to locate all our Adirondack Businesses (i.e. your future employer/business colleague!).  We welcome contributions.  If you find a site that might be useful to our other readers, please submit your link.  Thank you.   We appreciate reciprocal links!   Please patronized our businesses, and visit the special feature of the businesses marked with  J Icon.

Relocating your Business, or Family?
