Susan B. Anthony lived in several places during her life, but she is most closely associated with Rochester, New York, especially her home at 17 Madison Street.

Key places she lived

  • Adams, Massachusetts – She was born here in 1820 and spent her early childhood in this rural home, now preserved as her birthplace.
  • Battenville and Greenwich, New York – As a girl and teen, she lived in upstate New York mill towns after her family moved from Massachusetts.
  • Rochester, New York – From 1845 until her death in 1906, Rochester was her long‑time home base, first on a family farm near what is now Brooks Avenue and later at 17 Madison Street.

Her most famous home

  • The brick house at 17 Madison Street in Rochester is the address most people mean when they ask “where did Susan B. Anthony live,” because she lived there from the mid‑1860s until she died in 1906.
  • That house doubled as a headquarters for her women’s rights work and is now part of the National Susan B. Anthony Museum & House.

So in short: she was born in Adams, Massachusetts, but her best‑known residence, and the one you can still visit today, is 17 Madison Street in Rochester, New York.
