Downtown Buffalo is the urban heart of this large city nestled off Lake Erie. While it’s where you’ll find government buildings, businesses, and corporations, it’s also where you’ll discover culture, top-rated education, and welcoming residents. After all, Buffalo is the “City of Good Neighbors.” Downtown Buffalo is known for having one-of-a-kind sunsets over the water, which you may even be able to see from your new apartment! Public transit is abundant in downtown, so residents have no trouble commuting around the city.
The First Niagara Center, home arena of the Buffalo Sabres hockey team, sits on the district's southern border. In addition to sporting events, this venue hosts concerts by renowned performers. The Seneca Buffalo Creek Casino is another terrific destination with more than 800 slots, game tables, a bakery, and a sports bar. Residents and visitors alike enjoy visiting Shea’s Buffalo Theatre for live music performances, comedy shows, and Broadway performances.

The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
