What it’s like
The place. Brantingham is a town in Lewis County in northern New York, where more people own the homes they live in than across the country. The county's median age is higher than the country's as a whole. Winters are colder than in most of the country and bring a great deal of snow, while summers are mild and green.
Work. Many residents work in schools, hospitals and social care, and manufacturing, the building trades and local shops also provide jobs. Employment grew slightly across the county last year, and unemployment is about where it was a year earlier. Fewer adults hold a college degree than in most of the country, and few people work from home.
Things to do. Brantingham Lake is a lake a short drive away, a good place for a quiet day by the water. The Moose River, also a short drive off, is a river for those who like to be near moving water. Whetstone Gulf State Park, a longer drive away, is a state park and protected area.

Natural hazards

- Winter weatherRelatively moderate
FEMA’s National Risk Index (December 2025) rates the risk each natural hazard poses to the people, buildings and farms across Lewis County, against the rest of the country; all of them together, very low. It is meant for planning, not a substitute for a local risk assessment or a flood map: FEMA’s index.
From the U.S. Census Bureau’s 2020 census and its American Community Survey (2020–2024 five-year estimates), and the Bureau of Labor Statistics. A survey, so each figure has a margin of error, and figures it is not sure of are left out. More on Lewis County.
