Population: 6,164 Located in Orange County

Walden is a village located in the Town of Montgomery in Orange County, New York. The population was 6,164 at the 2000 census. The village is bisected by the Wallkill River. There are two waterfalls and dams on the river within the village limits, known as the Great and Little Falls; and two auto bridges, the High (NY 52, or West Main Street) and Low (Oak Street) bridges).

Route 52 crosses the town from east to west, and NY 208 from north to south. The two share a brief block in the center of town. Today, Walden retains some light industry and much of its working-class feel, enough for the village to have gotten into a spat with WPDH-FM disc jockey The Wolf in the late 1990s over his constant joking on- and off-air joking about Walden as a redneck town.

The village has its own police force, which provides 24-hour protection for residents; a public works department which maintains roads, water and sewer lines; a recreation department which maintains several parks within the village, including one with a pond in which swimming is permitted; and a village court presided over by an elected justice. Fire protection is provided for the village and surrounding fire district by the Walden Volunteer Fire Department, which has its own elected board of commissioners.
