Any of y'all know how Syracuse is doing these days?
I might have a job opportunity up that way and at a similar salary which would be pretty nice since housing costs seem to be at least 25% cheaper compared with long island. My GF did her masters in Syracuse so I've spent some time up there but it was many years ago now. I remember downtown having some nice restaurants, bars and music venues but it was a small area and the city was kinda rough around the edges, a lot of abandoned buildings. I've heard that its been on the upswing the past couple years with some more investment coming in but I'm on the fence! I have a lot of other considerations as well but just curious if anyone's living there or spent any time in the area recently and has some thoughts?

Usually hop in for shows then hop out
Good selection of tunes through out the year
Close to some real nice finger lakes stuff
The city to me as a whole is the pitts

Yeah, I was thinking maybe we could find a spot a bit outside the city but I also wouldn’t mind being able to walk or bike to work. Easier access to more hiking is definitely a major positive for us. very torn at the moment, might end up just flipping a coin lol

I doubt it’s changed that much. It is what it is.
I’m sure there are nice people and I’ve definitely had fun at shows in Syracuse.
I would want to make sure I really liked the job and the firm and the person I’d be reporting to. It would suck to hate your job and be in Syracuse.
But if you liked the gig and found a cute place and live w your love, you would be happy for sure.
Rochester is only an hour away. It’s be fun to hang!

Lakai ya make it up this way? If so, Billy Strings Tonight!??! I unfortunately did not, my current job made me an offer I couldn’t refuse to stay. I’ll probably regret it in a couple months but I just couldn’t turn down the raise and promotion.
