Amazing place
So after reading all these comments, I'm deducting that most of you live in the downtown area. I'm a 20 year old who has grown up in the outskirts of syracuse (onondaga hill) and I definitely disagree with a lot of things said on here. It is very true that Syracuse is known for a rediculous amount of snow, crime in the inner city, and a downtrodden downtown area. That does NOT mean that its a bad place to live! I have lived there my WHOLE life and been to the actual downtown area maybe 5-10 times total. Syracuse's greater/metro area is MASSIVE. There are sooo many things to do with just a 10 min car drive. Sure, the heart (and I mean heart) of downtown is a little past its prime, but thats about 0.1% of the total area of syracuse itself. So, coming from a pure native, come to syracuse, explore, and have the best life you can ask for. I live in NC now and I MISS SYRACUSE! Thats coming from a person who sees no snow and no crime year round!!
