Steuben

High score (8-10)
Corning's glass heritage is legitimate — the Corning Museum of Glass is one of the finest specialty museums in the United States and the glass-blowing demonstrations draw international visitors. Corning Inc. has invested heavily in the downtown Market Street area, creating a main street experience that's genuinely well-executed for a small city. For a man with an interest in design, materials science, or manufacturing culture, Corning has intellectual texture that most small Southern Tier cities don't.
Mid score (6-8) · Your profile
Corning's company-funded downtown is noticeably polished for a small upstate city, and the Museum of Glass brings an educated, international visitor base. The Crystal City label is taken seriously by Corning Inc. which keeps the city maintained. An outsider visiting for the museum gets a pleasant surprise.
Lower score (below 6)
Corning is a company town in the most literal sense — Corning Inc. essentially is the local economy, and when the glass business has downturns the entire community feels it. The social scene beyond the Museum of Glass tourist corridor is limited small-city bars and restaurants serving a working population. Bath, the county seat, and the rest of Steuben County are agricultural and working-class with very little social infrastructure for an outsider.
