We searched for X-ray emission from the 665 galaxies inside and towards the nearby voids by analyzing the ROSAT All-Sky Survey (RASS) data as well as the ROSAT pointed observations (PSPC). As a result we have detected six X-ray emitting galaxies. Two (UGC~10205 and NGC~7509) are in the high density region in the local void, three (UGC~749, MCG~+11-10-073, and Mrk~464) are towards the nearby voids, and UGC~32 is located in the low density region. We carried out a timing analysis for both Mrk~464 and UGC~32, and a spectral analysis for Mrk~464. The light curve of Mrk~464 shows the possibility of periodic X-ray flux variation and UGC~32 shows weak, but rapid variation.
