Comments on: What do you know about Syracuse and Columbus? http://irregulartimes.com/index.php/archives/2006/01/22/what-do-you-know-about-syracuse-and-columbus/ When old landmarks crumble, established roads no longer lead the way. New paths open to those with an irregular eye. Our news is unfit for print.

It is a very affordable town, ostensibly republican as is most of Upstate NY but with a definitely liberal slant in social issues. The people are generally friendly, with a lot of ethnic diversity. The city itself tries to provide a good cultural outlet. The NY state fair is also held here which brings in a good bit of entertainment talent. Just outside city limits, the area becomes very quickly rural with a beautiful countryside and close proximity to both the great lakes and finger lake areas. The biggest drawback to the area is the most horrendous winters one can imagine. This year has been a bit different, but we have many years where we get over 150 inches of snow in a season. Summers can be cool, and we do get beautiful fall folliage. I would be happy to answer any questions if you like Jeff I live near Syracuse.
