Attention IT professionals looking for positions in Central/Western New York. These are jobs with SUNY four year colleges that come with decent pay and excellent health and retirement benefits. Both are located in small college towns.
Geneseo is one of the most well regarded of the SUNY state colleges. It's located overlooking the Genessee Valley east of Buffalo and south of Rochester. I-390 connects you to Rochester or Corning, but it's probably a long commute to Rochester's southwestern suburbs. It's north of Letchworth State Park, and just west of the Finger Lakes wine country.
Brockport is located west of Rochester and north of Buffalo. It's commutable from Rochester's western suburbs and from Batavia, a small city about half way between Buffalo and Rochester. It's a few miles from I-90 for east-west connections as well as close to Lake Ontario for recreation.

The College at Brockport has an opening for a Linux System Administrator – to view the details please see the posting at:
Another tech position, this time a systems administrator, at Alfred State in Alfred, NY. The minimum requirement is a bachelor's degree in a computer-related field, so a promising recent grad might get it.
I will be honest that Alfred, NY is out in the middle of nowhere even by Southern Tier standards where many regard Jamestown as "sin city". Alfred is about an hour from Olean (about 50 miles) and about 20 minutes (about 10 miles) to Hornell. The village itself is very small and dominated by Alfred U and Alfred State, so in that respect it's a "college town" but it just doesn't have the amenities you would expect in a typical college town with small shops, bars, pizza places. It just doesn't seem to have the same kind of college town atmosphere you find in Geneseo or Fredonia or Ithaca. I don't think that there's much off-campus activities for local college students seem very limited.

From what I've been told by those that have gone to either of those colleges is that many students would go to Hornell. I believe that many of the people that work there live in Hornell as well.
For people in the Western NY area or interested in returning/relocating to Erie or Niagara County: the Niagara Frontier Transit Authority is hiring. They're even advertising on the television, something that they have never done before in my memory.
