Newfield Community

Located five miles south of Ithaca, NY (home of Cornell University and Ithaca College), Newfield is a small town of approximately 4900 residents. Many people who reside in Newfield work in the nearby communities of Ithaca, Elmira or Binghamton, while enjoying the beautiful scenery and rolling hills of Newfield. The Newfield Covered Bridge (pictured here) is the oldest in daily use in New York State and has recently been designated as a National Historic Site. Newfield residents have all the benefits of the cultural and educational resources of Tompkins County, while still maintaining one of the lowest tax rates in the area.
