Quality of life
Country Club, along with Riverdale, Woodlawn, Throgs Neck, and City Island is considered one of the nicest areas of the Bronx. Neighborhood homes include small brick houses built during the 1950s with both back and front yards. Walking down one of the many blocks one can notice the greenery of trees and grass.
Country Club residents enjoy for the most part a neighborhood that is safe and clean. The largest public park in New York City, Pelham Bay Park, is located nearby, as well as Orchard Beach. Residents are also five minutes away from the great seafood restaurants on City Island in Eastchester Bay.
