Just minutes from mid-town Manhattan, Westchester is New York State’s premier moviemaking location, offering extraordinary sites for filmmaking, still photography, and commercials — and a Film Office eager to help.

The gateway to the Hudson River Valley, Westchester offers locations from two different worlds: suburban locales, both rustic and elegant, and the high-tech excitement of city life.

The county has six cities: Mount Vernon, New Rochelle, Peekskill, Rye, White Plains and Yonkers (the state's fourth largest city). Add 22 river towns and country villages, and you have locations that can satisfy any film request.
