Where to Live
All graduate students live off campus. Off-Campus Programs and Services is a great resource that provides a housing search database, roommate search, advice for renter safety and things to do in Binghamton. Many students choose to live in Binghamton (typically on the west side or downtown), Johnson City or the nearby Village of Endicott.
