Living in New York offers a spectrum of experiences. Enjoy the iconic landmarks and cultural institutions of New York City, the historic charm of upstate cities like Saratoga Springs, or the outdoor adventures offered by the Adirondacks and the Finger Lakes. Whether it’s exploring Central Park, tasting your way through a winery tour, or enjoying a peaceful hike, there’s something for everyone.

Education is highly valued in New York, with outstanding public schools and world-class universities like Columbia University and Cornell University.
