Fact text
- Scarsdale's name comes from old Saxon words meaning 'rocky crags valley,' borrowed from a manor in Derbyshire, England.
- A local cardiologist invented the famous Scarsdale Diet in the 1970s, making the town's name synonymous with 1970s weight-loss culture.
- Scarsdale technically incorporated as a village in 1915 for one surprisingly practical reason: villages were harder for neighboring cities to annex than towns.
- An 18th-century man-made mill dam waterfall called Scarsdale Falls still flows along the Bronx River today.
