Troy Overview

Located along the scenic Hudson River and just a stone's throw from the New York state capital of Albany, Troy is a historic city just waiting to make an impression. Bustling with working-class pride and home to the acclaimed Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, this upstate New York hamlet is a fantastic place to discover.

What is the history of Troy?

Founded officially in 1791, Troy flourished into a full-fledged city by the early 1800s. The city rose as an industrial hub of the nation, thanks to a large steel production boom, and through the 1970s Troy found additional acclaim as a bell manufacturer. Famed author Kurt Vonnegut resided in the region, setting several of his tales in the city, and in 2014 the city kicked off a multi-year redevelopment project.

How is the weather in Troy?

New York is prone to four distinct seasons, and those living in Troy apartments will find little exception. Summers are sunny, hot and occasionally muggy, thanks to their proximity to the Hudson River, and winters likewise often produce snowy conditions. Autumn is quite beautiful, highlighted by an explosion of leaf colors, and spring tends to be mild and often rainy.

How do I get around town?

Bus service is handled by Peter Pan and Bonanaza Bus Lines, with taxi and ride-sharing options readily available to Troy apartment residents as well. Still, most in the area rely on a private car or truck for getting around, with Albany offering the closest options in the way of rail travel or airports.

What is the Troy commute like?

North-south travel is dominated by U.S. Route 4, while New York Route 7 covers much of the eastern end of the city. Traffic patterns tend to move briskly throughout the downtown scene, and those commuting the ten or so miles to the job market of Albany proper can expect minimal delays on most travel days.

What are the local media outlets?

Radio is abundant, ranging from indie college formats to classic rock, political talk, and just about everything in-between. The 'Albany Times Union' is a popular print publication in the area, and broadcast television is wide-reaching, including numerous affiliates for ABC and FOX.

Why live in Troy, NY?

Home to a number of higher educational institutions as well as plenty of public parks and other scenic natural perks, Troy rentals represent some of the best living in the upstate region of the Empire State. Still affectionately referred to as the 'Collar City' thanks to its history of textile production, Troy has much to offer in the way of job opportunities, as well as nearby amenities such as retail shopping.

What Troy landmarks should I see?

Take a gander at some of the famous Victorian-tinged architecture with a visit to the Troy Public Library, or stroll the grounds of the Paine Mansion. Marvel at the stately homes and intricate stained-glass windows of the Central Troy Historic District, and or simply stroll the historic halls of the Russell Sage College, both an easy reach from many apartments for rent in Troy.

What is there to do around Troy?

Get dramatic by taking in a performance by the Bakerloo Summer Theatre troupe, or fill your new Troy apartment pantry with fresh produce from the local farmer's market. Read a book under the oak trees at one of the city's many public parks, or take in a night of live rock-n-roll with a trip to nearby venue The Low Beat, both reached with ease from most Troy rentals.

Any annual festivals or Troy events to know?

Troy River Fest combines local culinary delights, crafts and live music, while the Enchanted City Steampunk Festival brings a touch of the weird and plenty of costumes to the downtown scene every August. The Troy Pig Out is serious about its pork, and Chowderfest brings seafood and soup fans from miles around.

Where are the nearby vacation spots?

Take I-90 straight into the heart of the antique hotbed of New England, or head south to the legendary Broadway District of New York City, both only a few hours drive away from many Troy apartments. The Empire State is home to Lake George as well as a abundance of other recreational areas flush with boating and fishing, making a Troy rental an ideal spot for nature lovers.

Where is the best place to move in Troy?

Whether you are a college student eager to connect with a new one-bedroom offering economic rates and easy access to public transportation, or are a growing family in need of plenty of space and pet-friendly policies, we are confident the ideal Troy apartment is ready and waiting for you. Start your search today, and start living the good life in New York state!
