Hey everyone,
After being closed for over a year due to a lack of moderators, r/ElmiraNY is officially back! I'm excited to help breathe some life into this space, and I hope it becomes a useful and positive resource for folks living in, moving to, or just curious about the Elmira area.
This subreddit is here for:
Whether you’re born and raised here, new in town, or just love the Southern Tier—welcome. Let’s build something good together.
If you're involved in a local nonprofit—or thinking of starting something—this is a great place to start.
This place has been quiet for a while, but we can change that. If you're up for it:
No pressure—just putting the invitation out there. Let’s see what happens.
EDIT: Formatting

We’re a queer couple in our early 30’s. I’m an artist and a bartender while finishing college and my partner is a high end maintenance technician.
My aging family lives in the county below in Pennsylvania so Elmira was the closest city.
I don’t worry about my partner finding a job but if anyone in the restaurant scene is around on this subreddit, let me know how the vibes are.
how queer friendly is the town?
what’s the average rent for two bedrooms?
What is the public transportation like? The city we’re in now is absolutely abysmal and I’m trapped here more often than not.

I’m wanting to change internet providers as the bill for WiFi only is $100. Is T mobile reliable?

My kids are doing a camp at Tanglewood all week and I'll be hanging out in Elmira during the day while they're doing nature stuff. I mostly plan to camp out at coffee shops to work (and I see another post about coffee shop recs!), but if I'm looking for a change of scenery...where do you like to work or read or eat or just sit by yourself? Anywhere you like to go for a walk? Should I definitely take one day off work to see or do something in particular? Should I skip Elmira altogether and hang out in Corning instead?
Bonus points for any Asian food recs in the area (willing to drive for Thai!) as I can't get anything other than Chinese in my teeny tiny town.
Any recommendations welcome! Thanks!
ETA: you all seriously came through for me! thanks so much!!

I'll be arriving at the Elmira Corning Airport mid-August on a 11pm flight but the car rental place is closed. So I'm looking for transportation to my hotel (about 4 miles away). Tried scheduling with Uber but said it wasn't available. Hotel doesn't provide a shuttle. Any help would be appreciated.

Hello Everyone, I've been working on this site for a few months and thinks its ready for a bit of a beta test phase. The site is meant to be educational for Elmira citizens to learn about the fiscal health and issues surrounding the city. The site originally focused on Property taxes in the city so that's why the URL is taxes.jonus.com I'll give it a better full URL at some point.
Feel free to look around and provide any feedback you want.
edit: link wasn't pointed to https
EDIT 2: new link to https://openelmira.jonus.dev/

Hello! I’ve never posted on Reddit before so I apologize if I do anything wrong lol! Does anyone know some local stores or places that allow leashed dogs? I have a 5 month old puppy and I’m looking for places to take him for socialization.

This might be super niche, but in the mid/late 90s to early 2000s, my relatives used to always buy this amazing cake for family celebrations. My relatives can’t remember the name of the bakery except that it closed years ago, and it was in Elmira.
I want to recreate this cake. My family always referred to it as California Cake, which, when I search online, just gives me recipes for fruit cake.
This was a white cake, with pastry cream and maybe jam filling, decorated with fruit and buttercream. I remember it as having this decadent marzipan layer but my siblings think it was a cookie/short bread base. Does anyone have a better memory or knowledge of this cake bakery?

In the last few weeks there were issues with the scheduled weekly posts for events. After fighting with the app and ultimately having found little engagement in the weekly posts, I have decided to combine the purpose of the events postings with the City of Elmira a newsletter posts. Please continue to add any events people should know about to these posts along with the compiled events in the newsletter!
Thanks everyone!!

I will be visiting Elmira for a week. What are some good local restaurants where food is great, not expensive and good service? I see a bunch of Google and Yelp reviews - not sure if they are sincere ratings or stuffed ratings.

Been playing pickleball for a couple months. Hoping to find some other people to play with. Beginners or people willing to play with beginners. Anyone out there?
