Syracuse metro area sees per capita income increase

Per capita income in the Syracuse metro area increased in 2023 after a slight decline the previous year, according to federal data. However, the growth rate was lower than in most other metro areas in New York and nationwide. In DeWitt, severe storms caused part of an industrial building's roof to collapse, with winds exceeding 50 miles per hour. The storm also resulted in power outages for thousands in Central New York. The Skaneateles boys hockey team won their third consecutive state title, defeating Ogdensburg Free Academy 3-0. This victory marked a significant achievement for coach Mitch Major in his final game before retirement.
