Welcome to the Town of Fallsburg
Young families and retirees equally appreciate the luxury of clean air and water, the security provided by a town-wide police department and by neighboring medical facilities. The easy access to New York City, just 90 miles east, offers residents the intimacy of small-town life with the benefits of a refined influence. This sense of community is fostered by the opportunity to participate in action committees, volunteer fire and ambulance squads, seniors clubs, arts centers, and, in the tradition of the countless famed entertainers who began their careers here, theater groups. Fallsburg is home to outstanding central elementary and high schools, and to Sullivan County Community College. These educational institutions provide a wide variety of schooling, sports and career opportunities. Its two beautiful lakeside parks, two PGA golf courses welcome visitors and residents. The Rails to Trails system enables residents and visitors to enjoy hiking, bicycling and cross-country skiing. Antiquing is a popular pastime at the quaint shops that line the hamlets' Main Streets. Fallsburg is the home of the international headquarters of the SYDA foundation, which welcomes visitors to its spiritual retreat site where it teaches meditation and yoga. Fallsburg is ready for development with community water and sewer available throughout most of the area.
