Fight for your right to party! Life is hectic. We’re moving at digital speed, multi-tasking our way through our days and nights. So we need lots of entertainment options virtually around the clock. Fortunately, the Western New York nightlife is great and getting better all the time. If you are buying a house in the WNY / Buffalo area you will have plenty to do and plenty of people to do it with!

Ground Zero is the Chippewa district in downtown Buffalo, where numerous bars and clubs are hopping well into the wee hours on weekends and many week nights as well. Chippewa also offers casual and fine dining, dancing, a place for quiet drinks, and live music and is right at the center of most of the seasonal festivals as well.

Beyond Chippewa, the city of Buffalos other entertainment offerings include a burgeoning bar scene on Hertel Avenue, to go along with the wide variety of restaurants there, large –venue dance clubs, and for those feeling lucky, a growing number of gaming venues. Summer in Western New York is one long party, and with a see-and-be-seen patio at nearly every restaurant or bar, you can enjoy a tall cold one with warm sunshine during the day and hot action after hours. Don’t miss the Lake Erie waterfront view either!

 People move to Western New York for the richness and diversity of its neighborhoods. The houses, streets, and business districts reflect on the region’s heritage and growth from a pioneer outpost and Buffalo waterfront community through its turn-of-the-last century grandeur as one of the wealthiest metropolitan areas in the nation. Throughout Western New York, you can find peaceful village life, the familiar comfort of suburbia, rural farming communities, and inner city neighborhoods steeped in Nineteenth century charm alongside spectacular mansions designed by some of the architectural giants of the nineteenth century.

With this diversity there is still more choice – the staunch neighborhood ethnic identifications, like Italian North Buffalo and Irish South Buffalo, the sleek sophistication of downtown loft areas, and the graceful elegance of the blocks of Victorian homes in the Elmwood and Delaware districts. Then there are the contrasts of the village of Lancaster, with its charming main street, as opposed to the town of Lancaster, the fastest growing community in the area with dozens of new-build subdivisions in the last decade. Or the contrast of the village of Clarence Hollow, one of the most historic communities in the region, with the town of Clarence, home to upscale Spalding Lake.

One of the nicest surprises is that you can get all this diversity within a twenty minute commute. In Western New York, no matter where you are, you truly are about twenty minutes from anyplace else. So you can work in downtown Buffalo and live in rural East Aurora, or live downtown and work in a new office park in East Amherst.  If you like new things, new houses and new communities, you can find that here. And if you like the old things, you’re in luck because there’s a lot of that to. If you like the feeling of a community where generations have grown up on the same block, gone to the same parish school, and live next door to one another, Western New York has that. There are also areas with miles of open space between neighborhoods. View Western New York’s communities: city, counties.
