Orangeburg is a hamlet and census-designated place, in the town of Orangetown, Rockland County, New York, United States.
It is located north of Tappan, south of Blauvelt, east of Pearl River and west of Piermont.
A total of 1.3 million US service personnel en route to Europe were processed at a sprawling camp that covered most of the town.
After World War II, even through it lies only 19 miles (31 km) north of New York City, Orangeburg was very rural with few residents, many of whom lived quite modestly in former soldiers' housing.
That lasted until the late 1950s when developers introduced modern suburban housing to young couples who saw it as an alternative to city living.
Additionally, Transport of Rockland (TOR) Bus #92 offers service to Artopee Way in Nyack and to the Spring Valley Transit Center, and TOR Bus #97 offers service from Orangeburg Road and New York State Route 303 to Oak Tree Road in Tappan and to the Park and Ride on Highway 9W in Stony Point.
