Binghamton – Land Use 🗺️
About Binghamton - Land Use ....
While there is some agriculture around Binghamton, it's mostly pasture and hay except when you get into the fertile soils along the Susquehanna River around Windsor. Many of the hills are quite forested, with deciduous trees dominating the landscape.
