Elmira is an oasis compared to Binghamton, an hour drive east of Elmira.

I’m sure it has seen better days, but that’s actually pretty nice for upstate.

[@diamondbeats83]

Why leave out the nice areas? I live here. Not a complete dumb but definently going down hill. There are some really nice areas also.

Another struggling older northern city driven into poverty by deindustrialization. What does Elmira have now besides a state penitentiary on its outskirts?

Any other city in the state with a similar population has MUCH bigger problems than Elmira.

[@JeffyG]

Cheap houses, huh?

[@gnhfrjnoiejsd]

yup some of them go for like 20k

[@mrbriggs68]

@@gnhfrjnoiejsd you show me a 20k house

[@platinumshopstudios]

30k to 90k for a fixer-upper that needs 50 to 100 to properly renovate if you can do the work yourself not actually cheap but the cost of living and tax rates makes it doable for a pensioner or single-parent family but outside the city limits prices start around 400k and up

[@jeffagoddard]

@@platinumshopstudios I live in the Toronto area [GTA] there’s nothing under $1M - and those are tear downs that require $250k - $400k to make livable. I can’t explain why the GTA is so expensive, when Buffalo is 1.5hrs away. Cleveland is 4 hrs away. Elmira is 3 hrs away.
