Community.

While manufacturing activity is present, Buffalo’s economy has transitioned to service industries with a greater emphasis on healthcare, research and higher education. Buffalo is home to Roswell Park Cancer Institute, and several other leading medical institutions, colleges and universities. Buffalo is on the eastern shore of Lake Erie, at the head of the Niagara River, and is 16 miles south of Niagara Falls. Its culture blends Northeastern and Midwestern traditions, with annual festivals including Taste of Buffalo and Allentown Art Festival, three professional sports teams (Buffalo Bills, Buffalo Sabres, and Buffalo Bisons), and a music and arts scene. Buffalo and the surrounding suburbs offer thousands of restaurant and dining choices serving food from around the world.
