Is there Jewish Life in Binghamton, NY?


You bet there is!


Are you Jewish? Are you tired of the rat race of a big city? Escape from New York (New York City, that is). Or Baltimore, or Philadelphia, or Los Angeles! Escape to Binghamton, the oasis of tranquility and Jewish life. The Jewish community of Binghamton, the capital of Broome County, invites you to explore. Binghamton has an Orthodox synagogue equipped with a mikvah and eruv, Conservative and Reform synagogues in addition to Chabad House, Hillel Academy of Broome County – a K-8 Day School, and the Jewish Community Center. Broome County is one of the least expensive ($121,400 according to a CNN 2003 report) and safest areas in the United States. The job market is perking up. We are half hour away from Lockheed Martin in Owego, New York. Binghamton University is one of the most affordable top quality state schools in the country and world-famous Cornell University is less than an hour drive away. We have two hospitals providing quality health care. We even have a weekly Jewish newspaper, The Reporter, a zoo and an Observatory.


And can you see this in your Brooklyn backyard?
