available through tax exempt bonds and real estate tax relief.
CITY OF HORNELL
In the last several years, Hornell has experienced tremendous economic growth. This growth has been unparalleled
and can only compare to Hornell's growth over 100 years ago when the Erie Railroad established Hornell as a major terminal. Of course, we all know the history of our railroads and the rise and fall of the
railroad counties.
Hornell has weathered the storms of economic hard times and now shines as one of the brightest stars in the Southern
Tier.
In a period when many communities are experiencing the disappearance of commercial activity, Hornell, again, has emerged
as a shopping hub for a wide area. Our educational systems and our recreational facilities are second to none. Our neighborhoods and City streets are being rehabilitated. City Government is working
as partners with various groups to improve our Quality of Life. Hornell is alive and well, now rare than ever, and is a great place to live, work and shop.
