Buffalo
Buffalo is the second largest city in New York. It is located upstate close to the Canada border. It is a city that is partly merged with Niagara city as most areas are labeled Niagara-buffalo. This being said its biggest attraction is Niagara Falls. It is also known for buffalo wings that did indeed get its start and name in the city. This is a city full of life and fun things to do. It is surrounded by many universities and full of people who are passionate to live in the city.Â

The airport is about 15 minutes to downtown Buffalo. Unless you plan on renting a car I would suggest staying close to downtown as there is a lot to experience right in the middle of the city.
Ubers, Taxis, cars, trains, and busses are available by the airport.Â
If you live near, the train is also an easy way to get to this city.

Anchor bar was the first place to claim the buffalo but if you ask the locals, it is overrated and a little overpriced. If you want wings just as good here are the two top places locals will mention.
