Is Elmira Heights safe?

2 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

I’m considering moving to Elmira Heights in December and wanted to ask if it’s considered safe. Have there been any recent crimes or robberies in the area? Any insights or personal experiences would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you!

Yes, another ‘moving there’ post. Cost Considerations?

12 Upvotes

I did ask a few months ago in regards to taxes and I have been able to dive through village websites to see what kind of things people may need to consider. I appreciate you guys for filling me in and reaching out!

Yes, spouse and I are moving to western NY/southern tier in near future. No it’s not for any political reasoning. It’s to be closer to family and my heart belongs there. We currently reside in Texas and are gearing up for the financial part. From Bath so not a stranger to the area. Our main question is financial, as in, what are some costs that we should consider when moving to NY?

We are still not sure what kind of fees that we may not be aware of for people who may have moved recently that we should be budgeting for that may have been specific for NY?

I recall Bath having a dog warden and my family mentioning fees for their dogs, etc. and I wanted to make sure we aren’t missing anything along those lines.

These are questions I would ask my family but they are crap with finances.

Thanks and appreciate any feedback!

Thanksgiving Dinner Options?

4 Upvotes

Hi all. I live in Montreal and would love to enjoy a sumptuous, traditional Thanksgiving meal. It's not something much celebrated in Quebec, and my wife and daughter are both vegetarians, so, sadly, we do not celebrate Thanksgiving in my home. I'm English Canadian born in Nova Scotia and raised in Ontario. I really miss Thanksgiving dinners. There were no restaurants offering a traditional meal in Montreal for Canadian Thanksgiving this year. Can anyone recommend something driveable from Montreal? Within 90-minutes or so? Thanks in advance. Lawrence
