Binghamton University is located in the Town of Vestal, just one mile beyond the Binghamton city limits in the Southern Tier of Upstate New York. Binghamton, Endicott, and Johnson City ("the Triple Cities")--along with suburban Vestal--make up Greater Binghamton offering a sophisticated cultural life, lively spectator sports and accessible outdoor recreation. Major employers include United Health Services, Endicott Interconnect Technologies, Lourdes Hospital, IBM, Lockheed Martin Systems Integration, BAE Systems Controls, Maines Paper and Food Service, Universal Instruments and the University itself.

Several theaters, a professional opera company, symphony and pops orchestras, the Roberson Museum, and the Kopernik Observatory are well supported by the community. The Broome County Arena, home to the Binghamton Senators hockey team, also hosts popular rock, country, and pop concerts. The Binghamton Mets play ball in a new baseball stadium downtown.

The area also offers restaurants, shopping malls, and many urban and wooded parks and picnic areas.

Binghamton is located at the crossroads of I-81, I-88 and NY Rte 17, within easy reach of major metropolian areas. Binghamton is 50 miles from Ithaca, 72 miles from Syracuse, and about 200 miles from both New York and Philadelphia.
