Ithaca really is a great place to live. Here are some reasons why we like it.
I love all the friendly people and interesting ways to spend the day (museums, galleries, restaurants, wine tasting, shopping). I really enjoy so many things about Ithaca especially how beautiful it is here. - Molly McNelley
I love Ithaca for the Farmer's Market's, Macro Mama's meals (at the Farmer's Markets) and for the endless gorges and places to explore. - Kate Pajonas
As a Mom, I was skeptical about moving to Ithaca, but now I love it. Ithaca is a great place to raise young kids! Robert Treman State Park, Taughannock Falls, Buttermilk Falls, and
Cascadilla Gorge are a must see! - Mandy Kellogg
The sunrises and sunsets in Ithaca are marvelous. - Molly McNelley
A beautiful town that will inspire you to get out and enjoy all it has to offer, even in the winter! - Amy Naim
The fall was wonderful! After having lived on the west coast all my life, the east coast fall was a wonderful surprise! - Rachel Wilde
I am always surprised at how Ithaca feels a bit like a "small town," despite the number of people living here. We are constantly running into people from JV at the grocery store, the YMCA, the Sciencenter, and the mall. It's fun to have friends popping up all the time! - Rachel Wilde
I love Ithaca because I can buy fresh apples within a mile from my townhouse and because the farmer's market is closeby. - Caren Kang
I love Ithaca for the natural environment, friendly people and endless activities in which to participate! It's an ideal community! - Kristen Renehan
The best thing about living in Ithaca is the beautiful natural setting. Ithaca truly is gorgeous and there are so many ways to enjoy nature year-round. My two favorite activities are hiking Buttermilk Falls and walking through Sapsucker Woods... beautiful! - Tammy Ireta
