With brisk mornings and brighter afternoons, riverfront paths and nearby parks make it easy to get outside between errands or after work.

For commuters, Schenectady offers straightforward access to Albany via I-90 and a well-used Amtrak station for trips across the region. Union College adds a collegiate energy, and local events and live performances help the city feel active without being overwhelming.
