Yonkers, city, Westchester county, southeastern New York, U.S., on the east shore of the Hudson River, in a hilly region north of the Bronx, New York. The site, once a major village, Nappeckamack, of the Manhattan Indians, was acquired by the Dutch West India Company in 1639. Yonkers borders the New York City borough of The Bronx and is 2 miles (3 km) north of Manhattan. Broadway runs through all three, and railroads also connect them to Grand Central Terminal. The Bronx River separates Yonkers from Mount Vernon, New York on the east. The Hudson River is on the west. Yonkers is convenient, affordable, and offers opportunities for almost every residential and commercial investment. It's why some of the biggest projects in the Hudson Valley are happening here, and why you should be part of it. You can get to Yonkers from almost anywhere, and easily so.
