Buffalo haters step inside.

Not really, if you want to break it down to house prices we can do other things as well

Gas is cheaper
Utilities are cheaper
No state income tax
Fact that you do not have to drive more than 5 miles to get to any major Grocery/Box store

Also what is shopping tax, we are at 6.25 for cars, 8.25 for other sales tax

Buffalo is 8.75%

also add into that a lower automotive insurance premium…

plus larger job growth rate

That $15k more you are making are not equaling a lower quality of life, but in reality more…
