Counts as of October 23, 2026.
The Great Sacandaga Lake, created in 1930, is one of the largest lakes in the Adirondacks. Mayfield, Northampton, Broadalbin and Northville all have shoreline, with boating, fishing and ice fishing in winter.
About 58 percent of Fulton County is inside the Adirondack Park. Caroga Lake, Canada Lake and the surrounding state forest offer hiking, paddling and quiet camps.
Johnstown and Gloversville were once known as the glove and leather capital of the world. The Fulton County Courthouse in Johnstown, built in 1772, is the oldest operating courthouse in New York, and Johnson Hall State Historic Site is nearby.
The FJ&G Rail Trail follows an old railroad line between Johnstown, Gloversville and Broadalbin, and is used for walking, biking and snowmobiling.
School district lines don't always follow town lines. Check any home's district by its address.
No. They are two separate cities that sit right next to each other, each with its own school district. There is also a Town of Johnstown around the City of Johnstown. Check the city or town and school district on any home you're serious about.
Yes, but many lakeside lots don't own the shoreline directly. Much of the land along the lake is state-owned, and owners get access through a permit from the Hudson River-Black River Regulating District. We'll help you understand exactly what comes with any lake property.
Yes. VA loans can be used anywhere in the county, including on multi-family homes up to four units if you live in one of them. We specialize in working with veterans using their VA loan, too!
Some. New building is mostly around Johnstown and near the Great Sacandaga Lake. We work with local builders and can walk you through lot selection, upgrades and the builder's contract, which works differently from a resale purchase.
