Lucky for you, apartments in Rome, despite being in New York, are not as costly as other cities in that part of the country. Located in Oneida County, in the state of New York, Rome is home to more than 33,980 people, and the 31st largest community in the state. The median temperature in Rome during the summer months is 68°F, with a bone-chilling low of 22°F during winter. The really cool thing about the rental properties in Rome is the fact that they are well below the New York median, and surprisingly, below the national average, as well. The cost of living index for Rome is also quite low – 26 percent less than the New York average, and 8 percent less than the national average. For a state with cities that average up to three times the national average, this is no mean feat. But this makes it easier on your checking account as you plan your move to Rome. See more
