So You're Thinking Of Living In...

Orangeburg, NY

Orangeburg was home to Camp Shanks, “Last Stop USA,” the largest World War II Army embarkation camp, 1.3 million US service personnel enroute to Europe were processed at a sprawling camp that covered most of the town. It is also home to what was once one of the world's largest psychiatric hospitals, Rockland Psychiatric Center, formerly called Rockland State Hospital. Orangeburg Pipe was once manufactured here. Before plastic pipes it was the standard alternative to metal pipes especially for sewer and outdoor drainage applications.After WWII even through it lies only 19 miles North of New York City, Orangeburg was a very rural place with few residents many of whom lived quite modestly in former soldier housing. That lasted until the late 50's when developers introduced modern suburban housing to young couples who saw them as a great alternative to city living. Today, Orangeburg is a suburb of New York City with housing values that belie its modest past.
