This is a cleaning company that doesn't just clean; they can just flip your entire place on the spot. Just absolutely amazed by their work. Quick but thorough service, personable but professional staff, and definitely someone I would come back to should the need arise again.

We have used Village Home Cleaning several times this year and they have been great. Communication is very good, it is easy to reach them by phone or text message. Our cleaner, Jeiny, was nothing short of excellent.

Life in Upper West Side

The Upper West Side is where family life meets classic Manhattan architecture. Grand apartments with formal dining rooms, parquet floors, and built-in bookcases line the avenues from Columbus Circle to the 90s. Classic sixes and sevens have rooms that serve different purposes as families grow, nurseries become playrooms become homework stations. Doorman buildings are the norm, Lincoln Center is the cultural anchor, and the schools drive the neighborhood's calendar. Cleaning an UWS family home means understanding the flow of a household with kids, pets, and a rhythm that revolves around the academic year.

Around the Neighborhood

  • Lincoln Center: The cultural heart of the UWS. Opera, ballet, jazz, and the best people-watching fountain in town.
  • Central Park (Strawberry Fields): John Lennon's memorial, just steps from the Dakota where he lived.
  • American Museum of Natural History: Where every NYC kid falls in love with dinosaurs and that giant blue whale.
  • Riverside Park: The quieter, more local park that runs along the Hudson. Perfect for joggers and dog walkers.
  • Zabar's: The legendary deli that's been feeding the neighborhood since 1934. Grab some lox while we clean.

Did You Know?

  • The Upper West Side was largely farmland until the 1880s when the elevated train arrived and sparked a building boom.
  • The Dakota building (where John Lennon lived) was named because when it was built in 1884, the area was so remote it might as well have been in the Dakotas.
  • The neighborhood has been home to countless writers and intellectuals. Isaac Bashevis Singer, Hannah Arendt, and J.D. Salinger all lived here.
  • Central Park West's twin towers (the San Remo, Eldorado, and others) were designed to look like wedding cakes, giving the skyline its distinctive silhouette.
