Putnam County PUTNAM COUNTY – which has been called “Little Switzerland”, has the 3rd highest median income, the lowest unemployment, the highest job growth rate and one of the lowest rates in the state for violent and property crimes. The economy is exceptionally well balanced with stable County taxes for more than a decade. The lure of excellent schools such as Brewster, Carmel, Haldane, Mahopac & Putnam Valley has helped give the real estate double digit value increases in the last decade. The county’s vast New York reservoir system and dedicated land preserves have become ideal locations for passive recreation. Putnam stretches from the Hudson River on the west to the Connecticut border on the east, and is serviced by the Harlem and Hudson lines of the Metro-North railroad, and by numerous north-south highways & parkways, one of the reasons why it has become a wonderful place to live for New York City commuters. A little over 100,000 people enjoy the semi-rural quality of life Putnam offers, yet they are also near major shopping centers and within 30 minutes of Westchester County and Stewart Airports.
