Nudist communities/residencies near NYC?

Are there areas in NY or NJ close to NYC that are clothes-optional? I'm not talking just a bar or yoga place here and there; I'm trying to live a life style at home and nearby (ideally everywhere, but that dream's a mile away) where I don't have to worry about being clothed.

A little context about me: I'm a 31-year old, would-be first time nudist attending Columbia in the city. I'm at a point in my life where I value openness and want to shed away the vest of shame. It's a little discouraging that healthy, social nudism is not as big in the United States as I thought it would be, but maybe I'm underestimating progress made in this area?

This goes deeper than saving on laundry, I promise.
