You nailed it! SUNY Binghamton is by far the largest employer in the area. Companies all left Johnson City, Endicott, etc. Now they are building Broome County CC up and spending $$ like water. Only an idiot would open a plant in NY state.

Over 20 years ago, a business consulting pal won a gig advising NYS how to attract business, public-private partnerships, etc. He was really gong-ho to apply his business knowledge and really re-ignite NYS.

Having grown up there through age 14 and having paid attention to the adults, I knew it was a fool’s errand. Some things like Illinois and New York simply cannot change.
