    "I am a new resident of about one and a half years now. I have lived in 8 other towns within 2 states and I can say I enjoy Buffalo the most! We are in the Rockford Township and have the pleasure of 2 school districts. Our street and the next two out of the neighborhood are all dead ends which make the traffic close to none. There is lots more to love but these are the top for me. "
