[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Ithaca, NY[/quote] Nice town....Very nice in the summer, but brutal winters. However, if you can handle the cold, it would be a great place to retire to. [/quote] Gorgeous winters! They plow the streets! And if you are retired, and not forced to head out to work, stay home with you food from Wegman's and get the fireplace going![/quote] I lived 9 years in Binghamton -- same climate. If you are not willing to go out with snow, you will be in most of the time from Dec - March. At least in the harsher winters. I sounds nice and cozy, until you realize how long the winters can be. In the same year, I saw 16" of snow fall on April 22 and on Halloween. That was 1993. If you live in that climate, you need to be able to enjoy the winter. I don't, anymore, Now a snow bird with Ithaca from Apr 15 - Oct 15 could be nice. (says the guy with is not retired, but is trying to have winter projects based in Florida)[/quote]
