No. 8 Buffalo, N.Y. ``` If you like snow, Buffalo is your place--to the tune of 90 inches a year, more than any other metro area that has a million people. Buffalo's population has been steadily shrinking since the mid-1990s. ``` ---

Per capita, for every person in buffalo saying “I hate buffalo”, there is probably someone in another city, saying the same thing about that city. I feel like a lot of people in buffalo are fairly friendly… ---

Southerners are WAY more friendly than people who live in Buffalo. I will say though, that people in Buffalo are more friendly and/or nicer people to be around than in the NYC area. I’ll be honest, I NEVER hear anyone say, “I hate living in North Carolina”. The people here really do love the place they live. I can’t speak for other cities/areas though. ---

Funny because the place I want to move to got 600" of snow last year. You would be ABSOLUTELY amazed at how many people out there have moved from NY. You almost don’t believe it when the 6th or 7th person in less than a week tell you they used to live in NY. The best part is, only the chill people seem to move. I hate even telling people I am from NY because I know/think they are assuming I am some obnoxious NYC dweller. ---
