Harrison, Suburban town in Westchester County, New York, United States.

Harrison is a residential community in Westchester County, New York, encompassing the neighborhoods of Purchase and West Harrison. The area spreads across gently rolling terrain with tree-lined streets, commercial districts, and open green spaces defining its layout.

John Harrison and three other settlers received a patent from British authorities in 1696, establishing the first boundaries of what later became this community. The legal structure evolved into a combined town and village form that continues today.

The Harrison Central School District maintains multiple educational facilities, including Harrison High School and Louis M. Klein Middle School in the downtown district.

Municipal offices are located centrally at 1 Heineman Place, offering access to town records and permits for residents. The area is easily reached by car and features several commercial districts for daily needs.

Two separate post offices operate within the municipal boundaries, an unusual arrangement for a community of this size. The combined town and village government under one administration is found in only a few places across the state.
