Set along Interstate 81 and nearly 34 miles south of Syracuse, Cortland is small town that combines all the charm of a central New York locale with the nightlife, entertainment, and atmosphere of a bigger city. This is thanks to SUNY Cortland campus and its diverse student body that sits on the western side of town. When class is in session, the array of restaurants and bars scattered around town remain buzzing.
Main Street and Port Watson Street hold the majority of the entertainment hotspots. There are live music venues that put on popular shows every weekend. A multitude of parks scattered around Cortland make it easy to enjoy a day outside or just a lunchbreak. There are affordable apartments, historic homes, and student housing aplenty in this laidback New York State town. I-81 will carry you up to Syracuse, or anywhere else in this scenic part of the state.
