I know it's not a choice in the list but, Mount Vernon might be the best in the state.
Besides property tax being high there is no extra city tax like Yonkers or NYC .
On top of that it has 3 metro north stations and 2 subway stations to get into the city.
 
How far is buffalo from NYC
7hours give or take.
don’t forget spring valley.
People over look Spring Valley which ain't but it has it pockets of trouble if that's what you're looking for.

Best City.....hard to say ,it all depends on your situation and what you're looking for,if you have a family or not, looking for a certain type of Field to work in which is bleak in most area's.

Albany is nice if u have a family they don't have as much crime and it can get boring.

Buffalo-rough tumble type of city,the people are for sure,lacks a lot of things.

Rochester-Same as Buffalo,lacks a lot of things, it's just starting to come out of the 1980s in 2020.

Syracuse-All they care about is the college, downtown ain't shit, the surrounding areas ain't either,the state Fair isn't worth attending no more.

Move to Atlanta or stay where you're at...best advice ever
 
Do you live in ATL?

Do you live in ATL?
No I live in Rochester.....I only say that cause I used to have people tell me "I'm moving to Atlanta" to the point I got sick of hearing it so my response is "Bye Bitch" whether they moved or didn't.

I'm moving to Atlanta,im moving to Charlotte,, I'm moving to Birmingham, I'm moving to Miami, I'm moving down south... it's something these people from here just like to say;they only move cause their older, running from someone or something or got family down there.
 
I aint from New York and don't know shit about the state. I do know a lot of white dudes from Buffalo and going of what I know about them, it's one of the most racist places in the country. They struck me as almost southern or hillbilly.
 
Man Buffalo is a shitzome . One of the most racist cities in America

We were typing this shit at the same time. When I was younger, all I knew about Buffalo was the snow but now that I know a bunch of people there, I only think of the racism.
 
Yeah, newyork state has areas that haven't seen much growth,lot of drugs, craze's,poor whites and everything else in between.

Geneva, Elmira, James town, Watertown,pugkipsee, Newburgh, spring valley....many other places and if they don't have a prison, ain't much when it comes to jobs.The underground economy is what keeps shit afloat.
