Our Community

Walton is a friendly country community where people can work, play, visit and live in a rural, safe and inviting environment. Comfortably
located along the banks of the Delaware River, Walton is nestled in the foothills of the Catskill Mountains, just two and a half hours from the
New York Metropolitan Region. Delaware County is truly God's country, with its breath-taking views, fertile farm lands, quiet villages, and
is the perfect place to work, raise a family, or retire in quiet serenity.

Walton is surrounded by outstanding natural beauty. Families can enjoy the pleasures and features of everyday living that are considered
luxuries in metropolitan areas. These include: crime-free neighborhoods, affordable home-ownership, free access to recreation activities,
roads free of traffic jams, convenient medical services, and educational facilities.

Tree-lined streets with one-family homes typify the friendly neighborhoods in Walton. Many homes are Victorian style and invite
memories of an era when life was less hectic and people took the time to enjoy their homes and neighbors.

Few small communities can boast of having a full-service, highly professional and well-equipped hospital. The hospital operates an
emergency care unit, and has many highly skilled doctors on staff.

Walton provides its young people with a learning environment characterized by quality instruction. The school district educates nearly
1,500 students. The Walton High School, Middle School and Elementary School all boast excellent libraries and computer labs. Many
Walton students go on to higher educational facilities, often in the upstate area.
