"I went to the woods because I wished to live deliberately ‰Û_ I wanted to live deep and suck out all the marrow of life" -- "Walden," Henry David Thoreau
Walden's roots as a mill town are still evident today, as its 7,000 citizens continue to produce goods and services used nationwide. Thanks to the city's prime location on the Wallkill River, individuals and manufacturers have chosen Walden for their home since the early 1700s. In fact, during the Civil War, Walden was better known to locals as "Knifetown" because most of the cutlery that the Union Army used was made in Walden. Tree-lined streets, water views, and the small-town atmosphere add to the ample economic opportunity present, making Walden just as popular today as it has been over the past 300 years.
Despite Walden's proximity to Manhattan, weather isn't quite so hot
