Welcome to Buffalo
As the second biggest city in New York, Buffalo is a bustling metropolis with a diverse and dynamic population. One of its most charming features is the tight-knit community that gives the locale a comforting small-town feel - the friendly locals welcome visitors with open arms. It's also one of the cleanest cities in the country, and it's notably affordable.
This city also has a rich history. It was the home to Iroquois tribes before European settlement in the 17th century. It was established in the early 1800s and served as a small frontier outpost - it was home to some of the most famous skirmishes of the War of 1812. With its location along the Erie Canal, it was also a convenient hub for trade and transportation, and it continued to grow over the years into the major metropolis that it is today. Now, nearly 260,000 people reside here, and it attracts some 16 million visitors each year.
