Relocate to Corning, NY

Message from the Mayor:

Corning is a city with a proud past and a bright future. Our history, charm, and community spirit are woven into everyday life here, making this a place that residents are proud to call home and newcomers are excited to discover.

Thanks to the vision and dedication of generations before us, Corning today boasts thriving neighborhoods, vibrant commercial districts, outstanding educational institutions, and a rich array of arts, culture, and recreational opportunities. We are deeply rooted in our history, yet thanks to the presence of Corning Incorporated, we play an important role in the global economy, something few small cities can claim.

Further enriching Corning are its active civic organizations, a beautiful natural environment, and the innovative spirit of the population. These attributes foster a high quality of life and a welcoming climate for businesses, families, and entrepreneurs alike.

Whether you are considering relocating, starting a business, or investing in our community, I invite you to explore all that Corning has to offer. We are glad you’re here!

With warm regards,
Mayor Pam Walker
