Big Flats, located between Elmira and Corning, is a suburban and river-adjacent Big Flats neighborhood with broad valley views and a retail corridor feel. Character concentrates along County Route 64 near the Arnot Mall, where big-box storefronts, casual eateries, and wide parking lots set a practical, errands-first rhythm. Low-slung ranch homes and newer subdivisions sit on generous lots, with open fields and wooded edges breaking up the street grid. The Chemung River and nearby wetlands shape the landscape with flat trails and seasonal birdlife. Community touchstones include the Arnot Mall, Tag’s Summer Stage, and the Chemung Valley History Museum just downriver in Elmira.
