Edgerton is a city neighborhood named for former mayor Hiram Edgerton. Though largely impoverished, it is known for its stock of beautiful old houses, as well as Jones Square Park, one of Rochester's earliest green spaces. Another neighborhood institution is the Edgerton Community Center and Park, which marked its 100th anniversary in 2011. Edgerton's commercial activity is centered on Lake Avenue - which is walkable but inhospitable to bikes - and, to a lesser extent, Driving Park Avenue.
The area is otherwise residential, except of a few schools and numerous churches.
