    Owego (zip 13827) sits along the Susquehanna River with a historic, small-town feel and four distinct seasons—snowy winters, colorful falls, and warm summers by the water. A friendly, close-knit vibe centers on a walkable downtown of 19th-century storefronts, the Owego Riverwalk, and the lively Strawberry Festival. Outdoor time is easy at Hickories Park (with a dog park), Waterman Conservation Center trails, and on the river for fishing or kayaking. Everyday needs are close: Tops Friendly Markets and Walmart Supercenter; coffee at The Owego Kitchen or Carol’s Coffee & Art Bar; meals at The Cellar or Parkview; workouts at Snap Fitness and local yoga studios; antiques and boutiques on Front Street, with larger retail on the Vestal Parkway nearby. Recent Zillow market trends show a median asking rent in the mid-$1,300s, with most listings over the past few months roughly $1,000–$1,700. It’s pet- and family-friendly with convenient NY-17/I-86 access.
