A Traveler's Guide to Ithaca

Ithaca is located in the southern portion of the US state of New York, which is located in the northeastern portion of the continental United States. New York was one of the original thirteen colonies that declared their independence from Britain, and it has been one of the most important cultural centers in the history of the United States. It is home to Ithaca, the largest US city by population, as well as some of the largest eastern seaboard ports. The state of New York attracts more tourists than any other New England state. Ithaca is located in Tompkins County and is the seat of government in the county. English is the most widely spoken and written language in Ithaca.

Ithaca was named in honor of the Greek island Ithaca. It is considered to be a "college town" because it is the home of Ithaca College and Tompkins Cortland Community College. Cornell University is also nearby and is home to several educational attractions such as the Cornell Plantations, the F.R. Newman Arboretum, and the Llenroc House.

Ithaca has a humid continental climate, which means mild summer temperatures and very cold winter temperatures. Because of its northern location, Ithaca summer temperatures rarely exceed 85 degrees Fahrenheit, while winter temperatures can dip well below freezing for days on end. Blizzard conditions can occur from time to time in the winter months, and rain falls most often during the months of July and August.
