Cortland, NY Apartments for Rent

Nestled in central New York, Cortland combines small-city living with historic charm. The city earned its "Crown City" nickname from its location on a plain formed by seven converging valleys. Apartments for rent in Cortland put you in the center of a community featuring preserved 19th-century architecture and local heritage. As home to SUNY Cortland, this city of approximately 17,500 residents offers a mix of college-town atmosphere and upstate New York living, situated 40 miles from both Syracuse and Binghamton.

Downtown Cortland features preserved historic buildings housing local businesses and the 1890 House Museum, which highlights the area's industrial heritage. The city offers walkable streets, access to nearby state parks, and a stable economy supported by education and healthcare institutions. With Interstate 81 and several state highways nearby, Cortland provides convenient connections to larger metropolitan areas while maintaining its small-town atmosphere.
