Saratoga county offers a healthy balance between the great outdoors and development, and economic and recreational opportunities. Perhaps best known for the Saratoga Race Course, Saratoga County is also home to the Saratoga Spa State Park, which boasts mineral springs, the Saratoga Performing Arts Center (SPAC), golf courses, museums, and hiking trails. Saratoga County benefits from having the Northway (I-87) running directly through it. This makes it the central way point between the state capital to the south and Lake George and the Adirondacks to the north. Saratoga County is also home to 3/9 of the top-rated school districts in the Capital Region, according to Niche. These include:
