About Buffalo & Western New York

Did you know that...
Buffalo and the Niagara Falls Metropolitan
Statistical Area is the 43rd largest
United States metropolitan area with a
population of 1,170,111?
Is located at the easternmost end of Lake
Erie and overlooks the Niagara River
and is just across the Peace Bridge from
the Canadian province of Ontario?
Is a 20-minute drive from Niagara Falls
and that approximately 55 percent of
the U.S. population and 62 percent of
Canada’s population is within a 500-mile radius of the Buffalo Niagara
region?
Averages 100 flights with nonstop
service to 24 cities and that the Buffalo
Niagara International Airport serves
4.25 million passengers annually from a
state-of-the-art terminal constructed in
1998?
Has an average daytime temperature
in July of 80 degrees and that Buffalo
receives a higher percentage of
sunshine – and significantly less rain–throughout the summer months than
Washington, D.C., Raleigh and Atlanta?
Enjoys an average of 85 days per year
with temperatures over 75 degrees; 50
days with temperatures over 80 degrees;
and only three days with temperatures
over 90 degrees?
On average, has only three days per
year when the temperature drops below
zero – Buffalo can expect more days
with temperatures over 75 degrees (85)
than days with snow on the ground
(76) – Buffalo receives an average of
92 inches of snow per year, less than
Montreal (95”) and Syracuse (109”)?
Weather is one of its most
misunderstood assets – Buffalo’s
reputation for snowfall is in part
the result of snow received in the
“snowbelt” south of the city – nearby
Ellicottville, the heart of the region’s
ski country, receives an average of 180
inches of snow each winter, making
it an outstanding location for skiing,
snowboarding and tubing?
And the Niagara region is home to
15 four-year colleges and universities
and 20 two-year schools, graduating
more than 20,000 students annually
including the largest public university in the state, the University at Buffalo,
which offers more than 300 graduate
and undergraduate degree programs?
And the Niagara region boasts of highly
regarded private colleges like Niagara
University, Canisius College and St.
Bonaventure University?
Is home to The Mansion on Delaware
Avenue, the only urban (city) hotel in the
United States to receive the Top Service
ranking in the 2007 Zagat Survey?
Architecture was noted in the The New
York Times as “a textbook for a course
in modern American buildings?”
There’s also harness racing at Buffalo
Raceway, thoroughbred racing at Fort
Erie Race Track across the Niagara
River in Ontario, a NASCAR track at
Holland International Speedway and
drag racing at Lancaster Motorsports
Park?
And the Niagara region is home to a
number of fine golf courses including
one designed by Robert Trent Jones,
the late dean of American golf course
architects that is known for its
outstanding design, scenic beauty and
reasonable rates?
Ranks among the top 25 cities
nationwide by Places Rated Almanac
for the rich array of cultural activities
found here, including: a lively Theater
District in the heart of downtown
featuring the opulent grandeur of Shea’s
Performing Arts Center and one of the
country’s finest regional theaters at
Studio Arena; a world class symphony –
the Buffalo Philharmonic Orchestra
and the acoustically perfect Kleinhans
Music Hall; extraordinary architecture
designed by world-renowned architects
such as Frank Lloyd Wright and Louis
Sullivan; resurgent nightlife along
Chippewa Street; American roots that
run as deep as the War of 1812, the
founding of the Erie Canal and the
Underground Railroad; one of the
world’s finest collections of modern art
at the Albright-Knox Art Gallery; and
an impressive collection of regional art
at the all new Burchfield-Penney Art Center?
Parks System was the first of its kind in
the United States – a visionary attempt
to create islands of tranquility amid a
growing city’s tumult – connected by
a series of bucolic parkways and broad
avenues lined with elegant homes,
Buffalo’s parks system remains an
extraordinary urban amenity.
