Why Rochester? | ||
|
The city of Rochester has some wonderful surrounding suburban areas to call home. They say "Everything is 20 minutes away" in Rochester thanks to the accessible design of our highways. You can enjoy all four seasons here from skiing and boating to festivals and wineries. Rochester has hosted many PGA golf events, we have Red Wings baseball games, the Americans hockey team and only an hour to Buffalo for the Sabres or a Bills game. We even have a few local race tracks and Watkins Glenn isn't far. We have plenty of nature trails and bike routes along the canal, and only an hour to Letchworth State Park or Niagara Falls. Rochester is known for the "Garbage Plate" and great BBQ but there are a host of fresh farmers markets, vegan and vegetarian specialties and plenty of upscale dining and nightlife. We have access to theaters, museums, universities, highly regarded hospitals, historic areas and some great school districts. Sounds too good to be true but Rochester is indeed a hidden gem. Sure, there's snow and ice, but there's really no severely destructive weather or deadly creatures hiding in swamps, we just need some snow tires. Every city has bad areas, but for the rest of us, the Rochester area is an expanding wealth of success, development, community and entertainment. We hope you visit soon and we would love to guide you! | ||
