In New York State’s second largest city, the neighborhood of Kensington provides a historic setting that’s perfect for residents who want to experience the benefits of suburban life combined with the convenience of living so close to Downtown Buffalo. Sometimes called Kensington-Bailey because the neighborhood’s central intersection is Kensington and Bailey Avenue, this area is classically Buffalo. You’ll find long-standing single-family homes and charming apartments in brick buildings on tree-lined streets. Kensington is relatively small by area, just one square mile, but the area rates well for walkability. You’ll find long-time resident hotspots in the form of bars and restaurants along Bailey Avenue and Cleveland Drive. Located nearly seven miles from Downtown Buffalo, Kensington is great for commuters thanks to its proximity to Highway 62 and the Kensington Expressway.
