Pelham

Pelham is an affluent suburban town in Westchester County, New York, approximately 14 miles northeast of Midtown Manhattan. Historically, Pelham was composed of five villages and became known as "the Pelhams". Pelham currently contains two independently incorporated villages: the Villages of Pelham and Pelham Manor. Approximately 28 minutes away from Grand Central Terminal by the Metro-North Railroad's New Haven Line, Pelham is home to many New York City commuters and has an active social community for its residents.

According to the United States Census Bureau, the town has a total area of 2.4 square miles. It is directly north of the New York City borough of the Bronx and borders Eastchester, New Rochelle and Mount Vernon. Pelham's southern border abuts a small portion of the borough of the Bronx, commonly called "Bronx Manor". The area is named for the borough and the village of Pelham Manor. This 250-foot-wide strip of land is technically located in the Bronx, and properties are taxed accordingly at Bronx rates. Bronx Manor residents have a New York City address with a Westchester telephone area code and exchange, and Pelham ZIP code (10803). Residents of Bronx Manor are eligible for political jobs for which a New York City residence is required. Bronx Manor is served by the MTA Regional Bus Operations' Bx16 route.
