Major publications like The Washington Post have commented on Buffalo's newfound vitality. It's about time we start getting credit for our hard work!

While we still take pride in our industrial roots, Buffalo is no longer known only for steel plants and grain mills. Our small business climate is on the rise and we're one of the best cities for startups!
The third most underrated, to be exact. At least if you're going by this article from Travel + Leisure.
Okay, so this is a self-proclaimed title, but we think the Queen City is certainly worthy of the accolade! From our public art to the support of small business, Buffalo is booming!
How do you think Buffalo has become the little city that could? Let us know in the comments below! We’re so proud of our hometown, and can’t wait to see how much more we progress in the coming years!
