Affordable Walkable Cities: Buffalo, New York
Affordable Walkable Cities: Buffalo, NY
We will look at cities that are just plain underrated. We will focus on specific neighborhoods that are walkable and bike-able to services and amenities within a reasonable distance. The 15 minute city in America?
What actually qualifies as Affordable? We will be looking at cities with average or below average rent and at or below the median home sale price.
What qualifies as Walkable? The entire city doesn’t have to be walkable since that’s unrealistic but they must have at least several neighborhoods with a good walk, bike and transit score. The goal is to find an area within the city where you can absolutely live car free.
The culture in Buffalo is ⅓ MIdwest, ⅓ East Coast and ⅓ Canadian. It’s filled with Historic Walkable Neighborhoods - each with their own charm and filled with locally owned businesses. Buffalo isn’t going to wow you with culture and amenities but then again it’s also safer than the previous 4 cities I’ve highlighted in this series. If you haven’t been to Buffalo in 20 years, it wouldn’t be recognizable. Buffalo is the poster child for the rust belt resurgence.
