Cornwall, a town in Orange County, New York, USA. As of the 2010 census, the population was at 12,646. Located about 50 miles north of New York City on the western shore of the Hudson River, Cornwall has become a bedroom community for New York City. Commuter rail service is available via the Salisbury Mills-Cornwall train station, operated by NJ Transit, and several other nearby stations on Metro North Railroad. While the town is located less than an hour from the George Washington Bridge, major commuter routes like the New York State Thruway and the Palisades Parkway run nearby, but not through the heart of Cornwall. ^source

Area code 845 is a telephone area code straddling the Hudson Valley region of the U.S. state of New York. It serves Rockland, Putnam, Orange, and Ulster counties; most of Dutchess and Sullivan counties, plus parts of Delaware, Greene, and Columbia counties. Area code 845 was created on June 5, 2000 from most of area code 914, which was retained by Westchester County. 845 was the first new area code in New York (outside the New York City metropolitan area and Long Island) since 1954. ^source
