A leafy, historic, family first pocket of Mid Island in ZIP 10314 - tree lined streets, older homes with real character, a park at its heart, and a community feel that keeps families here for generations. Here is what it is actually like to live here.
Westerleigh is one of the most established, full of character neighborhoods on Staten Island. The streets are lined with mature trees, the homes lean older and full of detail - colonials, Victorians, and craftsman era houses that have been loved and updated over the decades - and the whole place carries a settled, historic feel that newer parts of the island simply do not have.
What holds it together is community. Westerleigh is the kind of neighborhood where families put down roots and stay, where neighbors know each other, and where kids grow up and buy back in. Westerleigh Park anchors it all, and the leafy, low key streets keep it feeling like a small town inside the city.
