> Explain what you mean by expensive? does that mean restaurants, and or recreation type activities? Over priced beacause its more of a tourist destination? or what? Ya im def. not lookin forward to traffic but i think people in Buffalo have it good in comparison to just about anywhere. high car insurance vs NYS taxes etc will be a draw IMO. And im a cocky mutha so i just might find my niche down there! Oh and FUCK this snow and 10 degrees shit!

People from Buffalo say it is expensive, BUT the jobs PAY better down here. Doing the same thing I do now (real estate) I was making about $15-20k less a year in Buffalo basically doing the same job AND paying state income tax on top of it. People think ‘making it’ in Buffalo is making like $50k a year. Shit, they even pay the mcdonalds people like $9 - $10 an hour to start down here! hahahaha!

Seriously, the cost of living may be a little higher initially if you are used to paying $500 a month rent in B-lo and step up to 1200 a month down here, but then again the quality of living, amenities, etc. is a little nicer. I do and always will love Buffalo and call it home, but for me anyways, the best possible life I could have for myself and my kid is down here.

No matter where you go, there YOU are. You have to be happy with yourself and you can be happy anywhere.
