Both [[U.S. Route 11 in New York|U.S. Route 11]] and [[Interstate 81 in New York|Interstate 81]] pass through the hamlet, connecting it to [[Watertown (city), New York|Watertown]] to the north and [[Syracuse, New York|Syracuse]] to the south. In April 2007, the Town of Cicero redrew the traditional boundaries of Brewerton, moving the eastern line west to Interstate 81, and the southern line northward from Mudmill Road to Orangeport Road. This was done to allow Brewerton to remain eligible for Federal grant money. New housing developments had made Brewerton exceed guidelines for "blighted" areas that allow for improvement funds.

In recent years, Brewerton has become a major port for fishing on the already popular Oneida Lake. This is due to the recent Bass Masters outings at Oneida Shores County Park.

Brewerton is now a center in the growth of housing developments Miralago and Champlain at the lake.
