Bordered by stores, restaurants, professional offices, a busy public library and Victorian homes, Hamilton’s picturesque village green is the focus of life in this community in Central New York’s Chenango Valley. This is where children play, musicians perform, artists exhibit and farmer’s sell their produce. It is also where folks can enjoy a slow pace of life and a high speed, wireless Internet connection.

Founded as Payne’s Corners in the 1790s, the Hamilton of today thrives on the energy generated by Colgate University, one of the leading liberal arts colleges in the nation. Village residents and a growing number of folks who live rural lives in second homes nearby have access to the arts, sports, outdoor activities, fine dining, unique shops and a variety of events that illuminate Hamilton’s small town charm.

For a small community surrounded by sprawling family farms, Hamilton is fortunate to have a highly respected community hospital and a school system always among the best in the region. And, for many, that is what makes this community so attractive.
