About Romulus
Romulus sits right between Seneca Lake and Cayuga Lake in the heart of Seneca County, surrounded by rolling farmland and scenic waterfront views. It is a quiet, rural town with plenty of space to breathe, where country roads connect spread-out homesteads and peaceful lakeside neighborhoods. The area has a long history dating back to early American settlement, and it still holds onto that timeless, small-town atmosphere that draws people looking for a slower pace.
Living in Romulus means having two of New York's most famous lakes practically in your backyard. You will find wineries, farm stands, and boat launches scattered along both shores, along with state parks and campgrounds nearby for weekend outings. The town is quiet and residential, while its central location puts grocery stores, restaurants, and employers in nearby Geneva, Waterloo, and Ithaca within an easy drive.
