What it’s like
The place. Nineveh is a town in Broome County, in the Southern Tier of New York, where the land is hilly and streams run through the valleys. Most homes are lived in by their owners, and the county's typical home value is well below what many buyers pay in larger metropolitan areas. Winters are cold and snowy, summers are warm, and rain and melted snow fall through most of the year, so the seasons are clearly marked. Residents tend to know their neighbors and to look after one another.
Work. Schools, hospitals and social care, shops, restaurants and hotels, and manufacturing are the main kinds of work for people who live here. Unemployment across Broome County has held steady over the past year, and the number of jobs grew slightly over the same period. A minority of adults hold a college degree. Commutes are fairly short, and few people work from home.
Things to do. Oquaga Creek State Park is a protected area a short drive away, suited to walking and time outdoors. Cannonsville Reservoir, a longer drive away, is a body of water for those who enjoy being near the lake shore. Oquaga Creek, also a short drive away, is a river that runs close by for a quiet afternoon by the water.

FEMA’s National Risk Index (December 2025) rates the risk each natural hazard poses to the people, buildings and farms across Broome County, against the rest of the country; all of them together, relatively moderate. 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 Broome County and the Binghamton, NY metro.
