For New Yorkers looking for more space, a quieter setting, or a place to spend weekends outside the city, the Berkshires offer a very different kind of home-buying opportunity.

The Berkshires offer a wide range of communities, from lively downtowns and historic village centers to quiet country roads, mountain properties, and homes surrounded by open land. For people considering a move to western Massachusetts, choosing the right Berkshire town can be just as important as choosing the right house.
