Binghamton is a city in the eastern most extent of the Southern Tier of New York and the lower right-hand corner of the Western Tier of New York. At the crossroads of the Southern Tier Expressway (NY Route 17) and Interstates 81 and 88, it serves as one of the principal gateways to western New York.
The city competes with upstate New York cities - Rochester, Buffalo, Syracuse and ?Albany? - for the The Golden Snowball Award.
