Watertown, a city of about 24,700 people, is the seat of Jefferson County in northern New York and is nicknamed the Garland City. It is the main shopping center for the North Country and the gateway to the Thousand Islands and the St. Lawrence River.
Fort Drum, home of the 10th Mountain Division, sits just east of the city, and Samaritan Medical Center and Jefferson Community College are major draws. The New York State Zoo at Thompson Park and the Salmon Run Mall attract families, and I-81 runs along the west side of town, so billboards reach soldiers, shoppers and travelers.
