Types of apartment in Buffalo, NY

Buffalo apartments often sit in older houses that were split into two or three units. In Elmwood Village, Allentown, North Buffalo, and Parkside, you will see brick and wood-frame homes with porches, bay windows, and steep roofs. Many apartments keep hardwood floors, tall windows, and built-in cabinets, but layouts can feel uneven because the homes were not built as modern rentals. Around Downtown and the Lower West Side, apartments also show up in newer mid-rise buildings and reused warehouse spaces near Canalside and the Medical Campus. These often have simpler exteriors, elevators, and in-unit laundry.
On the West Side, Black Rock, and South Buffalo, houses for rent and smaller apartments often come with vinyl siding, front steps, and shared driveways. In Hertel and Kenmore-adjacent parts of the north side, brick apartment buildings from the mid-1900s are common, with compact kitchens and standard room shapes. Near Delaware Park and along Richmond or Main Street, apartments can have more formal exterior details like stone trim or decorative entries. Buffalo rent options change block by block, so exterior style often tells you a lot about storage, stairs, parking, and whether heat is centralized or separate.

Getting around Buffalo, NY

NFTA Metro, the bus and light rail system, covers much of Buffalo. The rail line runs from Canalside through Downtown to University Station, so apartments near Main Street often have easier transit access. Driving is simple on routes like the 33 and I-190. Parking can vary by block in Elmwood Village, Allentown, and the West Side. Walking works well in Downtown, Hertel, and Elmwood. Biking can be practical on flatter streets and near Delaware Park.
