Croton on Hudson is a village located directly north of Ossining in northwest Westchester County in the town of Cortlandt. The train station is considered a busy hub on the Hudson line of Metro North, and the village is also the home of my older brother. Do with that last bit what you will. This market report is for single family homes in the Croton-Harmon school district, which is not coterminous with the village but is close.  All information is from the Westchester Putnam Multiple Listing Service. 

The median price is up $20,000 from last June in Croton. There were also 7 sales this June compared to only 4 last June. There are 9 homes under contract at a rather high median asking price- over $600,000- but inventory of active homes has swelled to 80. Overall, things are looking up. This is getting to be a trend with June's market reports-one wonders how things will go in the post-stimulus world.

Always wondered how the town obtained its name. Enlightenment please :-)

It is believed to be a derivation of the name of a tribal chief who inhabited the area in colonial times, Kenoten.
