In the 1790s, Scarsdale was a small rural town with very little employment options.Potatoes and other vegetables were grown on the ranches in the area.The people coming here were hindered by the lack of employment opportunities in the 1790s. In and around 1891 or 1892, a large parcel of land was acquired and the first of many new homes were built in Scarsdale and soon the population grew to almost 1000 inhabitants causing the little rural town to instantly become popular, with new stores and other commercial projects and societal clubs to start forming into influential aspects that would guide the small town into the 20th century and beyond and in 1915 the town was incorporated as a Village and now the population had grown to over 3000 people. They built about 1000 new homes here. The building boom (so to say) was on in Westchester County   In 1915 it was incorporated as a village.

Since then, many home building booms have taken place along with commercial and commerce growth that has seen the former rural area turn into a hub of business and residential growth and people both living and working here.  Many people come here for the fine lifestyle and great schools.

Scarsdale has a very educated and diverse make up.

Because of many things, Scarsdale is a very good place for families to consider. The arts and theatre are popular in Scarsdale, New York.

Sales prices as well as rental prices will be high, but the specific price will be determined by the structures age, size, location, and its amenities.

Along the beaches are beautiful homes with 1, 2 and 3 stories, many of them older single family homes built in the 1920s and 30s.  Today many of these older beach homes are being replaced with modern single family homes and condos.  Along the 27 miles of Pacific Coast Highway, are estates, and larger single family homes, many sitting on multiple acreage lots with lush landscaping of natural brush, trees, and many with meandering brooks and creeks coming out of the mountains above.  Even with all of the tourists who visit Malibu, there are very few motels, hotels or resorts to speak of.
