About Pleasantville
Pleasantville is a walkable village of about 5,000 residents in the town of Mount Pleasant, best known as the home of the Jacob Burns Film Center — the independent-cinema landmark that opened in 2001 inside the historic Rome Theater — and for the Usonia historic district, a neighborhood of Frank Lloyd Wright– inspired modernist homes (two designed by Wright himself). Pace University's Pleasantville campus is also located here. Housing is mostly older single-family stock — colonials, Capes, Tudors, and other early-20th-century homes on tree-lined streets — with co-ops and condos near the downtown/Old Village core. The village reads as an arts-friendly, small-town community with a strong Main Street identity. (Note: Usonia carries a Pleasantville mailing address but its district boundaries were not verified against the village line; treat it as Pleasantville-addressed rather than definitively in-village.) Price: Median sale price of $838,250 across all home types (median $880,615 for single-family homes), per Homes.com's 12-month Pleasantville sold data (crawled January 2026).
