Utica, home to about 65,000 people, is the seat of Oneida County and the largest city in New York's Mohawk Valley, known as the Handshake City for its friendly reputation. Refugee resettlement has made it one of the most diverse small cities in the state, with large Bosnian, Burmese and other communities, and its Italian-American food traditions are famous across the region.
Utica University, Mohawk Valley Community College and nearby SUNY Polytechnic bring students, and the new Wynn Hospital is a major employer. Utica Comets hockey at the Adirondack Bank Center and shows at the Stanley Theatre draw crowds downtown. The Thruway (I-90), I-790 and NY-12 meet here, so billboards reach commuters, travelers and Adirondack-bound tourists.
