Welcoming
We don’t call Amsterdam “small city, big heart” for nothing. Our growing community is legendary throughout Tech Valley for its spirit, its warmth, and its safety. Residents rally around our high school sports teams, which have brought home state championships more than once.
Here, people truly care for each other – embodying the term “good neighbors” and creating lifetime friendships.
Accessible
Two major advantages bring Amsterdam close to everything. First there’s the infrastructure. The New York State Thruway and the Erie Canal stand at the foot of our hill; rail crisscrosses the state from here; the international airport is 40 minutes away.
Then there’s our location. More than 15 colleges and universities, some of them among the world’s finest in their fields, are within a 45-minute drive.
Affordable
The numbers tell the story. At about $8 per commercial square foot and many beautiful homes priced under $100,000, our real estate costs are less than half the national average.
Settling in the city of Amsterdam allows businesses to generate major cost savings, residents to buy more house for the dollar, and everyone is set up for a bright financial future in a thriving region.
Small City. Big Heart.
Welcoming. Accessible. Affordable. It’s hard to imagine a better life than the life you’ll find here. But don’t take our word for it. See for yourself.
