"The picturesque community of Bainbridge, N.Y., located along the Susquehanna River in the rolling hills of Chenango County, boasts quiet streets, historic architecture and beautiful farmland, a true upstate New York, small-town community. Regional businesses provide a unique shopping experience, including specialty food, farm markets and antiques, while quaint, peaceful neighborhoods provide a relaxed quality of life. Residents enjoy the Saturday morning flea market in the classic New England village green, the vintage 1910 theatre, milk shakes and burgers at the 1950s-style diner, and enjoying the outdoors at the spacious General Clinton Park...Bainbridge was settled over 200 years ago by people who had the courage to settle in a new frontier area. The first Europeans in Bainbridge were displaced by settlers from Vermont, known as the Vermont Sufferers, who were given land in what is now Bainbridge and Afton. The town of Bainbridge was formed in 1791 as Jericho, which was part of Tioga County until 1798, and changed to Bainbridge in 1814. The village incorporated in 1829."
