Suburban town in New York that shares a border with the Bronx. Parts of it are okay but it gets a bad reputation from the snobs that make up most of Pelham Manor. Has all kinds of people: annoying very rich people, rich people that aren't annoying (very few), a little annoying rich people, normal people, and, the smallest minority, poor ghetto people that moved from the Bronx and Mount Vernon. Known for having way too many general stores and pizza places, but for those living on 5th Ave/Wolfs Lane and Lincoln Ave it's nice to have a pizza place just 20 steps from your apartment building no matter where you are on those roads. The only fun part of the town is on the border it shares with Mount Vernon and includes the roads mentioned above as the main streets. A shopping area near the place where the Bronx, Pelham, and Mount Vernon meet is a short walk from the New York City subway and Pelham is only about 25 minutes from midtown Manhattan.
