Syracuse Overview

Centrally located in upstate New York, Syracuse is a gateway to countless outdoor adventures. People living in Syracuse rental homes have close access to everything from boating adventures to NFL games to a quick trip into Canada. Historical landmarks are abundant, as are modern amenities like golf courses and concert halls. The city has four distinct seasons, so there's a little something for everyone here. Syracuse has a rich performing arts scene and a thriving nightlife. It's easy to navigate here, once a person gets their initial bearings. With so many things to do and a robust economy, Syracuse has a lot to offer to newcomers moving to the area.

What is the history of Syracuse?

French Jesuit missionaries were the first Westerners to settle in this area, on the northeast shore of Onondaga Lake in the mid-1600s. It was originally nicknamed "The Salt City" because of the salty brine springs in the area. Commercial salt production was one of the early industries here. The collection of small towns and villages would not receive a post office or be officially recognized as a city until 1820 when it was finally named Syracuse. The city remained a manufacturing and industrial center until after World War II, and today has a more diversified economy.

How is the weather in Syracuse?

Syracuse is known as one of the snowiest metro areas in the US. It gets an average winter snowfall of 115.6 inches. Between the weather effects of Lake Ontario and nor'easter snowstorms from the Atlantic Ocean, Syracuse is turned into a winter wonderland every year and then some. July through September is the rainy season when the city averages about 38.5 inches of annual precipitation. Daily high temperatures range from the low 70s in July to the low 20s in January. Many say that fall is the prettiest time of year to visit upstate New York when the leaves are turning color. 

How do I get around town?

Most people need a personal car to get from their rental homes to work and to run errands in Syracuse. The city's bus system, Centro, runs through most neighborhoods and suburbs in the area. Train service is available from the William F. Walsh Regional Transportation Center. Amtrak trains run twice a day between Syracuse, Niagara Falls, and Penn Station in New York. Greyhound and other major bus lines run long-distance services between Syracuse and other cities. The Syracuse Hancock International Airport is located in Salina. It offers daily non-stop flights to major air transport hubs on the East Coast, including Boston, New York City, Washington, D.C., Philadelphia, Chicago, Detroit, and Fort Lauderdale.

What is the Syracuse commute like?

Syracuse does experience rush hour traffic in the mornings, primarily from 6:30 a.m. until 9:30 a.m. The good news is that most commuters only spend between 10 and 19 minutes commuting to work. Commute times can get much longer in the winter, however, when the city is going through major snowfall. Interstate 81 is the major north-south route through Syracuse and runs between Canada and Pennsylvania. Interstate 90 is a major east-west freeway just north of the city. Interstate 690 is a major east-west route that runs through the center of the city. Another important road to know is Interstate 481, which is an eastern bypass route that connects the north and south of the city without going through the Downtown area.

Why live in Syracuse, NY?

Many people who grow up in Syracuse choose to stay and raise a family because it's such a great place to live. The cost of living is much more affordable when compared to other places in New York. Cultural events, sporting events, and outdoor activities are abundant and available year-round. There are wildlife centers, historical sites, parks and nature areas, boating opportunities, and beautiful scenery. Most people can make it from their rental homes in the suburbs to the city center in 20 minutes or less. Crime is also lower in Syracuse than in many comparably-sized cities.

What Syracuse landmarks should I see?

Clinton Square is a major gathering place in the city with 19th-century architecture. It transforms into a community ice skating rink during the winter. Syracuse University is a private university with a beautiful campus that was founded in 1870, and it is a major landmark in the city. The Erie Canal Museum is located in the only remaining weighlock building in the US, where visitors can learn about the history of the canal system in this area. Families will love a trip to the Rosamond Gifford Zoo, which is home to elephants, penguins, and many other species. 

What is there to do around Syracuse?

Destiny USA is a huge indoor mall in Syracuse with a wide range of shopping, dining, and entertainment options. NBT Bank Stadium seats 11,000 people and is home to the triple-A Syracuse Chiefs baseball team. Famous American paintings, sculptures, and other works are on display at the Everson Museum of Art. You can attend live concerts and theatrical performances at the historic Landmark Theater in Syracuse. Onondaga Lake Park is a great place for the whole family to enjoy archery, boating, hiking, fishing, and outdoor fun.

Where is the best place to move in Syracuse?

There are a lot of great suburban neighborhoods to look for Syracuse rental homes, and as mentioned, most are within 20 minutes or less of the city center. The Lakeland, Liverpool, and Galeville neighborhoods surround Onondaga Lake, and there are occasionally even waterfront rental homes that come on the market. Fairmount, Westvale, and Solvay are on the west side of the city and offer quick access to Downtown on I-690 or Genessee Street. The Scottholm and Eastside neighborhoods are great choices if you want to be close to Syracuse University. DeWitt and East Syracuse are nice suburban neighborhoods directly east of the city center.
