"Low bridge, everybody down, Low bridge, 'cause we're comin' to a town, And you'll always know your neighbor, you'll always know your pal, If you've ever navigated on the Erie Canal." ("Erie Canal")
Located just south of Rochester in western New York, Brighton is known for its architectural beauty, and for the Erie Canal, which runs through the middle of town. More than 36,000 people are located in this suburban area, also noted for its amenities. Named for Brighton, England, it was settled in 1790, and it remained a farming community until Rochester grew up around it, eventually surrounding the town. Today, this upscale suburb packs a lot into its 15 square miles. A thriving business sector lets you work close to home and after a hard day's night, you can enjoy its six major park sites, the annual Brighton Arts Festival, the Farmers Markets or maybe a songfest about the Erie Canal.
Even if you're going to be living in an apartment complex, it never hurts to join a group like a neighborhood or apartment association
