Scarsdale's suburban housing stock dates mostly to the late 19th and early 20th centuries, growing quickly after 1877 when the village became an express stop on the New York and Harlem Railroad; a 150-acre farm was subdivided into single-family lots in 1891. ## What Scarsdale does to a home appliance. As of the 2020 census the village counted 5,747 housing units against 5,510 households, a vacancy rate near 4 percent, with 90.5 percent of homes owner-occupied. Population grew from about 1,300 in 1910 to nearly 3,000 by 1915 and close to 10,000 by 1930, so a large share of the village's homes date to that single fast-growth window. Scarsdale is one of only two municipalities in Westchester County with no land zoned for manufacturing or industrial use, which keeps its housing stock almost entirely residential.
